Gun Violence Is A Women's Issue

John–

With gaps in our country's gun safety laws like the boyfriend loophole,
women remain at risk of intimate partner violence and gun violence across
America.

That's why this Women's History Month, I'm asking you to recommit yourself
to fighting against this crisis. [ [link removed] ]Contact your U.S. Senators today and
demand that they support the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) that
includes life saving gun safety provisions.

[ [link removed] ]Gun Violence Is A Women's Issue: Demand Action

We've been pushing the U.S. Senate to include gun safety provisions in the
reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act — and gun violence
prevention champions in the Senate listened. They put forward S. 2843, the
Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2019, which would add
life-saving gun safety provisions to VAWA that will keep firearms away
from dangerous domestic abusers and provide law enforcement with important
tools to intervene when domestic abusers try to obtain firearms illegally.
This bill has already passed the U.S. House, with bipartisan support, yet
the Senate has failed to act.

This Women's History Month, we must do better to protect the nearly 1
million women alive today who have reported being shot or shot at by
intimate partners, and the 4.5 million women who have reported being
threatened by a gun. This Women’s History Month, we need action.

[ [link removed] ]Send your U.S. Senators a message and demand that they support the
Violence Against Women Act that includes life-saving gun safety measures.

Thank you for everything you do,

Sarah Trumble
