This month, we're marking one year since we got Congress to pass the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the first major gun safety law in nearly 30 years.
We gathered with leaders on Friday to celebrate all of the progress we've made—and to make clear that we're ready for what's next.
Check out some of the incredible moments from the Safer Communities Summit on Friday and share them with your friends. From President Joe Biden to U.S. senators to Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action leaders, we all agreed: We are not finished.
Last June, our movement made history. The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act strengthened our gun laws and made critical funding available to implement proven solutions. Breaking the logjam in Congress over the opposition of the gun lobby opened the door to the further action we need to end this crisis.
And in the year since President Biden signed this life-saving legislation, we have not slowed down. We've been changing the culture and politics of gun safety in our country. We've shown we can do more than just thoughts and prayers when it comes to ending gun violence.
This fight is not over—and it is one that we are winning.
Check out and share these amazing moments from the Safer Communities Summit on Friday. Together, we'll continue to create change and save lives.
Thank you for being a part of this movement.
