Friend,
Nearly a year ago we Marched for Our Lives in Harrisburg. Survivors and doctors testified. Pennsylvanians grabbed legislators in the hallway. You couldn’t miss the sea of orange.
And then the most significant gun safety policies in years if not decades, passed with bipartisan support, largely because of that single day and CeaseFirePA volunteers and partners who pushed for action in the weeks that followed.
But, they haven’t hit Governor Shapiro’s desk yet. And life-saving policies to rein in ghost guns, keep kids safe, and stop straw purchases, languish on the Senate floor.
I’m headed back to Harrisburg on May 7th to keep fighting for the lives of our children, neighbors, friends, and family. With you beside me, it will be even bigger. Will you join me for our End Gun Violence Advocacy Day? RSVP today. [[link removed]]

Since the 2023 Advocacy Day, our movement has grown:
*
Volunteers
like
Rocco
shared
how
Extreme
Risk
Protection
Orders
would
save
veterans
from
suicide.
Jeani
Garcia
shared
her
story
with
thousands
through
Deadly
by
Design.
Betsy
began
organizing
her
senior
citizen
community
to
fight
for
grandchildren.
*
A
new
faith
coalition,
With
One
Voice,
raised
their
moral
demands
for
an
end
to
gun
violence.
Doctors
wrote
about
the
children
they
watched
die
in
the
ER.
*
We’ve
counted
every
day
and
every
life
lost
to
this
crisis
waiting
for
the
Pennsylvania
Senate
to
hold
a
single
hearing,
remembering
them
at
vigils
across
the
state.
We cannot wait another day while 4,600 Pennsylvanians are injured or killed every year. Will you help us change this statistic on May 7? [[link removed]]
You’ll meet with legislative offices and attend a mid-day rally on the front steps of the Capitol with elected leaders, survivors, youth, faith leaders, medical professionals, and other advocates to demand change and a safer Pennsylvania.
Once you sign up, we'll let you know about transportation options, including buses, online training to prepare for your meetings, and an exciting list of speakers for the rally.
Sincerely,
Adam Garber
CeaseFirePA Executive Director
