# [#]Every day, gun violence devastates communities across the country. It threatens Americans in places where we should all feel safe, like houses of worship, schools and movie theaters.
Today marks 29 years since the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban was enacted. While that important piece of legislation was in effect, the number of deaths from mass shootings across the country fell. But then Republicans let that ban expire – and mass shootings sky rocketed.
Two things are clear: *
These
kinds
of
bans
work.
*
Congress
must
finish
the
job
and
protect
our
communities
from
preventable
gun
violence.
We need to deliver real reform, and quickly – but with a Republican majority in the House, Congress needs to know that you’re with me. I’m hoping you’ll add your name in support of our work to boost American manufacturing while building a sustainable future. Sign on here: [[link removed]]

It’s past time to finish the job and ban weapons of war once and for all. Assault weapons are 6 times more deadly than handguns. They’re used in 25% of mass shootings. They have no place on our streets – and especially do not belong in our schools.
Since the beginning of my time in Congress, I’ve championed gun violence prevention measures, and I remain committed to this mission. Are you with me?
An assault weapons ban worked in 1994 and it’ll work in 2023. Urgent action is needed now. Please weigh in on this important issue today. [[link removed]]
