Earlier this week, former State Representative Mike Barbieri penned an op-ed about Bethany’s strong track record of advocating for safer communities. Here’s what he had to say:
“I served alongside Bethany in the General Assembly for seven years and saw her compassion and values firsthand…
As lieutenant governor, Bethany has continued to show support for gun safety issues, whether it’s standing with students who walked out of school after the Parkland shooting or supporting permit-to-purchase, an assault weapons ban, raising the age for long-gun sales, and banning large-capacity magazines.
Bethany’s record on gun safety is clear, and her ‘F’ rating from the National Rifle Association is proof.”
Bethany understands that gun violence is a public health crisis, and tackling this crisis means approaching it from all angles, including behavioral health resources, legislative efforts, and collaboration with community leaders.
John, Delaware’s children and families deserve nothing less than a fierce champion for gun safety. Bethany is ready to lead on Day One – and with the Democratic primary just three weeks away, she needs your support to keep doing this critical work!
