The horrific events of last weekend are a stark reminder of the severe consequences of a dysfunctional Congress and a fear monger in the White House.

Today, the president promised bipartisan solutions while simultaneously blaming mental health, the media and video games for the violence we are experiencing across the country.

We don't need the same old rhetoric, we need to do something NOW. The Senate has a background check bill in front of them that has already been passed by the House and will be a huge step forward in this fight.

Will you add your voice to the call for reform by calling your Senator and letting them know that you demand action? The number for the Capitol switchboard is: (202) 224-3121

The health and wellness of our entire nation is in jeopardy and we cannot go on like this.

Our democracy is at stake and the only way to achieve real progress is for each and every one of us to step up and demand Congress get its act together and pass meaningful reforms right away.

Please join me by taking a stand. Call your Senator and urge them to take immediate action on gun reform: (202) 224-3121
