Today, a gunman killed at least three people and injured one on the University of Nevada, Las Vegas campus. The first 24 hours after a mass shooting like this one are among the most critical. We must rise up and show our commitment to ending gun violence now, while all eyes are on this story.

Please, will you add your name before midnight to demand Congress take action to end gun violence?

Friend, earlier today, gun rights extremists in the Senate voted yet again to block both universal background checks and an assault weapons ban, life-saving reforms supported by a majority of Americans.

Only a few hours later, three people were killed and one injured in a mass shooting at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. This tragedy took place mere miles away from the site of the 2017 Las Vegas shooting that remains the deadliest in American history.

It's a cycle that families are all too familiar with. We've spent decades calling on Congress to pass the simple, life-saving reforms that will end school shootings like this one. We'll only be able to finally end gun violence if grassroots people raise their voices to demand change during critical moments like this one. Will you add you name to our petition now to call on Congress to finally take action on mass shootings? We're asking 20,000 activists to step up before midnight, so please sign on now.

The students at UNLV grew up living under the fear of gun violence. They've spent their entire lives practicing school lockdown drills, watching other communities be devastated by mass shootings and fearing that their school or their grocery store or their place of worship or their family will be next.

This fear is not without just cause. From Parkland to Sandy Hook to Virginia Tech, so many schools have become the target of hate-fueled gunmen wielding weapons of war. And 2023 has seen a horrifying record high for mass shootings. Today, firearms are the number one cause of death for our kids.

Even though the mainstream news cycle will inevitably move on in the days ahead, the victims and the students who witnessed this horrific shooting will carry that trauma with them for the rest of their lives. Mass shootings rip our communities apart every single day. Hundreds of them never make national headlines, but they leave families just as devastated.

Congress has ignored this crisis for far too long. Enough. Today, we're calling on Washington to stand up to the gun lobby and finally protect the families that they swore to serve. Please, will you add your name before 11:59 p.m. tonight to demand that Congress finally takes action to end mass shootings? Your voice holds incredible power during moments like this one — and we're counting on you to use it.
