John,
Over the weekend, 30 Americans were killed and dozens more were
injured in mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio. In
the blink of an eye, in the most unsuspecting places - a Walmart
on a Saturday afternoon and a neighborhood bar on a Saturday
night - gunmen armed with assault-style weapons brutally murdered
unsuspecting mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, and children.
There have been 251 mass shootings in America this year: in
schools, shopping malls, offices, festivals, concerts, and
religious services. I refuse to accept this is the "new normal."
Sign our petition demanding Mitch McConnell and the Senate take
up bipartisan gun reform legislation already passed in the House.

In the face of this unspeakable tragedy, with a mourning country
demanding solutions, the only response Republicans in Congress
can muster are the usual “thoughts and prayers” - recycled
condolences and empty Twitter condemnations that ring hollow in
the face of their persistent inaction.
They say they’re “horrified.” They’re not. They say they’re
working on the issue. I don’t believe that, and I know you don’t
either.
Today, I’m calling on Mitch McConnell to end the August recess,
reconvene the Senate in an emergency session, and bring to an
immediate vote H.R. 8 - the bipartisan background checks bill we
passed in the House in February.
If you believe as I do, that it’s unconscionable for Republicans
to take summer vacations with their families while other
Americans bury theirs-- sign our petition demanding the Senate
immediately reconvene to pass H.R. 8. ( [link removed] )
Let’s honor the memory of the victims of gun violence here in
South Florida and across the country by taking action.
Sign our petition today: DonnaShalala.com/guns ( [link removed] ).
Thank you.
Donna
