Progress.

Yesterday afternoon, the U.S. Conference of Mayors passed — unanimously — a resolution in support of amending the Constitution on guns.

The resolution was sponsored by mayors from California, Oregon, Ohio, Georgia, New York, Missouri, Tennessee and Mississippi.

Blue states. Red States. Purple States.

Because gun violence is not a partisan issue. It impacts us all.

And the overwhelming majority of Americans from all communities and all political beliefs want more action on this issue.

I have said from the start that I was under no illusions about how difficult passing a Constitutional amendment on guns would be.

But it had to start somewhere — and in California we became the first state to call for a Constitutional convention on the issue. Now mayors from across the country are adding their voice. That's how it builds. And none of it would have happened without the demonstrated grassroots support for this issue.

So today I have an important ask to keep us moving forward:

If you agree we need a Constitutional amendment to make our communities safer from gun violence, then sign my petition today and join a growing community of people reaching out and educating voters and legislators about our Right to Safety Amendment on guns.

Congress has not done enough. The courts prevent Congress and the states from doing what has to be done. Given that reality, it's up to us — together — to act.

We need a Constitutional amendment on guns.
