John–

We're so excited and inspired. We just got back from Gun Sense University
2023, our annual conference, and it was the first time we've been together
in person since before the COVID-19 pandemic. The energy was incredible.

on stage at Gun Sense University 2023.

We gathered in Chicago for this year's Gun Sense University, and there
were so many of us. Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action
volunteers and survivors came from communities across the country to learn
from each other, connect, and make this movement stronger than ever. As we
celebrated 10 years of demanding action, we made clear we're more than
ready for the next decade.

And we got to hear from some amazing people.

Vice President Kamala Harris was there, encouraging us to keep up the
fight in an incredible speech.

In a heartfelt moment, Moms Demand Action founder Shannon Watts handed the
torch off to Angela Ferrell-Zabala, our first-ever Executive Director.

And on Saturday, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker and other leaders from the
state showed us firsthand the importance of electing gun sense champions.
Surrounded by a sea of gun safety advocates, he signed a critical gun
violence prevention bill to help hold bad actors in the gun industry
accountable for their role in the gun violence crisis. As part of this
year's Gun Sense University, we also named him the State Gun Sense
Lawmaker of the Year for his leadership on gun safety.

Together, we're building the next decade of demanding action. [ [link removed] ]Watch and
