John — when the NRA finally broke its silence after the horrific mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio, it said: "We will not participate in the politicizing of these tragedies but, as always, we will work in good faith to pursue real solutions that protect us all from the people who commit these horrific acts."
The NRA is the last organization that should be claiming to work in "good faith" for "real solutions." We're fighting to turn back decades of the NRA's extreme agenda and hate-filled rhetoric. And if we're going to win this fight, we need your help. Support our fight against the NRA today and help us stop gun violence in America.

"Good faith?" The NRA's leadership uses the same virulently racist and anti-immigrant rhetoric that President Trump uses — all while white supremacist violence persists in America. The NRA, time and again, combines its rhetoric with policies that weaken gun laws and public safety. Decades of these NRA tactics have gotten us to today; help support our fight against the gun lobby now >>
And the gun lobby hasn't brought "real solutions" to the table. They don't support background checks for all gun sales or strong Red Flag laws — the kind of gun safety laws that can make our families and communities safer.
Frankly, the NRA leadership is all about politicizing tragedy to push dangerous policies, working in bad faith, and spreading fear to profit gun manufacturers. Their hateful propaganda and dangerous policy positions can only be stopped by our movement for stronger gun laws. As advocates for ending gun violence, Moms Demand Action, Students Demand Action, and the Everytown Survivor Network won't stop fighting for stronger gun laws. Even when the NRA stands in the way. Contribute to our fight for stronger gun laws and help end gun violence.
