"It is within our power to once again ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines"

– President Biden

John,

The first weekend of July saw the most mass shootings of any weekends of the year. And the bloodshed has not slowed. 

It also marked one year since a gunman armed with an assault weapon and high capacity magazine fired more than 80 shots into a parade in Highland Park, IL, killing seven people and injuring 48 others. 

This unending trend of gun violence in our country is why President Biden continues to plead for action from Congress – including banning weapons of war, yet they have inexplicably failed to take action to protect the American people from the gun violence epidemic.

Banning assault weapons means stopping the next tragedy. Because these weapons are the common link between some of the deadliest mass shootings in the US: In Uvalde, Highland Park, Buffalo, Aurora, Parkland, Orlando, Las Vegas, Newtown, the gunman used an AR-15 style weapon.

We are calling on 5,000 dedicated activists to join President Biden and Brady in calling on Congress to ban assault weapons NOW. >>

Biden has continuously appealed to Congress to follow his lead in addressing gun violence with lifesaving action. Yet, the NRA money-riddled legislative body has remained stagnant – seemingly ignoring the deaths of children and adults in heinous mass shootings where the gunman used an assault weapon designed to kill as many people as possible, as quickly as possible.

These weapons of war do not belong on our streets nor in our schools, John, and each day our lawmakers fail to act is another that Americans are at risk. Will you join the president, Brady, and gun violence prevention activists across the country in speaking out today? Tell Congress: This is life or death. TAKE ACTION TO BAN ASSAULT WEAPONS. >>

Thank you for urging our lawmakers to take the lifesaving action that our country deserves. 

–Team Brady
