Tomorrow marks 11 years since the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

Yet, in those 11 years, nothing has changed. Assault weapons – like the one that stole 20 students and 6 educators – still rule our streets, and our children continue to be plagued by gun violence.

– Guns are the leading cause of death for American children and teens.
– Our country has witnessed 330 school shootings this year.
– 2023 is officially the deadliest year on record for school shootings.

It’s heartbreaking.

Children deserve to focus on their studies instead of learning how to duck and cover.

Parents deserve to send their kids to school without having to worry whether they’ll come home on the bus or in a body bag.

Teachers deserve to go to work without wondering if they’ll make it home to their families.

But our leaders have failed them.

That’s why we’re working to REPLACE complacent lawmakers – like the ones who blocked the assault weapons ban in the Senate last week – with gun safety candidates who will fight to end gun violence and pass meaningful legislation. Will you pitch in any amount before midnight to help keep our movement to ban assault weapons and elect gun safety champions firing on all cylinders? >>

Last week, we were honored to attend and co-sponsor Newtown’s 11th Annual Vigil for Victims of Gun Violence.

We listened to thousands of survivors tell their stories.

We listened to countless loved ones talk about people they lost.

We listened to outspoken cries for change and action by our lawmakers.

Now, we intend to work tirelessly to ensure no one has to go through what those at Sandy Hook endured. We’re on the frontlines to re-instate a federal assault weapons ban and end gun violence once and for all – but we can’t fully fund our campaign to elect gun safety candidates from coast to coast, up and down the ballot without your help. We’re calling on 395 gifts before midnight to hold cowardly Republican lawmakers accountable and replace them with candidates who are dedicated to our movement. Will you rush $15 to help? >>

BAWN is committed to replacing every cowardly and complacent lawmaker, regardless of party, that denies your right to live without fear of being shot. Legislators that support the deadly proliferation of guns, instead of common sense gun safety measures, are responsible for the carnage of gun violence -- and must be voted out.

BAWN also lobbies legislators to support the assault weapon and large capacity magazine ban bills that will help put an end to the slaughter of innocent Americans.

But they can’t do this alone. BAWN is relying on your support to kick every coward who refuses to protect our children and families OUT of office. Will you chip in right away?
