Dear John,

It is no secret that gun violence is out of control. Countless lives have been stolen or forever changed by our nation’s gun violence epidemic. And unless we see real policy reform, more innocent lives will continue to be lost.

Vote Mama is committed to endorsing and electing moms who will fight to stop the carnage that is taking place all too frequently in our schools, churches, and grocery stores.

Fighting for gun reform every day is tough, but the moms we elect are tougher. In fact, many of our Vote Mama alum are already making huge strides on gun reform in Congress.

• Rep. Jennifer Wexton introduced the Empowering Law Enforcement for Safer Firearm Transfers Act to empower law enforcement to block the sale of weapons like silencers, which were used in the 2019 Virginia Beach mass shooting.
• Rep. Grace Meng, another Democratic Vote Mama candidate, passed legislation to close the “Charleston Loophole” — which allows for the sale of a firearm to proceed if the background check can’t be completed within 3 business days.
• In California, Rep. Sydney Kamlager urged banks to stop lending to gun manufacturers.
• As the Deputy Whip on the Gun Violence Prevention Task Force, Rep. Jahanna Hayes of Connecticut rallied colleagues in Congress around the Bipartisan Background Checks Act, a measure to implement universal background checks for all gun purchases.

We NEED to keep these moms in Congress so they can continue this life-saving work, as well as support candidates running for the first time who will champion common-sense gun reform. That’s why we're inviting you to click two buttons today that will make a powerful impact.
