VICTORY IN VIRGINIA!

Governor Ralph Northam Signs Five New Gun Safety Bills

John–

I hope you and yours are well. During these tough times, I want to take a moment to share some great news with you.

Today, Virginia Governor Ralph Northam signed into law one of the most meaningful and comprehensive gun safety packages in our country's history—an astonishing five new gun safety bills, including background checks on all gun sales and an extreme risk protection order law.

These new laws—each of which will work to reduce gun violence—are the end product of years of advocacy, and a shining example of what happens when we elect Gun Sense Majorities.

We are beyond grateful for the Virginia lawmakers who have made gun safety legislation a reality; but even more so, we're thankful for you. Major victories like this one are only possible because people like you show up time and time again to demand action. Make no mistake: You're the reason for this victory. I hope you're able to take the time to celebrate and be proud of what we've accomplished together.

In 2019, we flipped control of the Virginia General Assembly by electing Gun Sense Majorities to both legislative chambers, right in the NRA's backyard. And with your support, we'll do the same this year and elect Gun Sense Candidates across the country, up and down the ballot in 2020.

We remain in difficult and uncertain times as a country, but we're in this together. Thank you for being a part of the Everytown family.

Sincerely,
