John,
Enough is enough.
We have had enough of living in constant fear of gun violence, of waking up to news of our fellow Americans being gunned down, of losing friends and family members in mass shootings in our schools, shopping centers, movie theaters, concert venues, and places of worship.
And we have had enough of Republican politicians standing with the gun lobby and the NRA instead of taking action on commonsense gun reform to save countless American lives.
We can’t wait for the GOP to act any longer. The only way we are going to pass gun reform is by defeating NRA-backed Senators in swing states and taking back the Senate.
This weekend, a total of 31 people were murdered and dozens more injured during an act of domestic terrorism in an El Paso Walmart and a mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio.
In Chicago, a gunman wounded seven people near a playground on the city’s West Side.
And these are just the most recent examples. In 2019, we’ve already experienced 251 mass shootings—that’s more shootings than days in the year. We must stop this epidemic.
My best,
Dick Durbin
