WE NEED BACKGROUND CHECKS NOW

John–
A year ago today, I watched the U.S. House of Representatives pass a
bipartisan bill that would make background checks on all gun sales the law
of the land. This marked the first major piece of gun safety legislation
to pass either chamber of Congress in over 20 years.
And then last night, I followed news reports out of Milwaukee of yet
another mass shooting. Five people were shot and killed inside the Molson
Coors brewery campus; five people who are now a part of the more than 100
people who are shot and killed in America every single day.
We need laws that prevent gun violence, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell still refuses to acknowledge that. In the year since the House
passed H.R. 8, Senate Majority Leader McConnell has sat on his hands and
done nothing while an estimated 38,000 people have died from gun violence.
[ [link removed] ]That's why I'm asking you to take action by contacting your U.S.
Senators.
For an entire year, we have pushed Sen. Mitch McConnell and his allies in
the U.S. Senate to pass background checks on all gun sales. I know from
being there alongside you that we have fought harder than ever to make
common-sense gun safety legislation on a federal level a reality.
[ [link removed] ]Send your message today and demand background checks on all gun sales.
Our hearts go out to the victims of yesterday's mass shooting and the
victims of daily gun violence, and we resolve to honor their lives with
action.
Thank you for being a part of this movement.
