Gun violence was at the forefront of DNC discussions this week.
John, we’re so proud.
The Democratic National Convention wrapped last night, and gun violence was front and center all week. This would have been unTHINKABLE just a few years ago, but together, we’ve changed everything.
Once upon a time, guns were the third rail of politics. This week, top leaders and candidates talked every single day about putting gun violence FRONT and CENTER. Instead of shying away from it, they invited survivors ON STAGE to share their harrowing stories of loss. That’s HUGE.
This is going to make a BIG difference in the campaign. Millions of young people agree with you, John, and put gun safety as the NUMBER ONE issue to them. And the youth vote WILL be the deciding factor in this election and democrats now know what we’ve been saying for years: gun safety is a top priority for young people and a winning issue.
The DNC has caught up with the times, but MFOL has been ready for years. Millions of young people are motivated by gun violence and ready to elect gun safety champions up and down the ballot in November. They just need to be mobilized.
Will you donate today so we can continue mobilizing youth to the polls to elect candidates who will pass gun safety laws for a future free from violence?
Last night, Kamala Harris addressed the nation, stating:
“In this election, many other fundamental freedoms are at stake. The freedom to live safe from gun violence—in our schools, communities, and places of worship.”
America cannot guarantee freedom and safety for the next generation so long as guns are so easily accessible and loosely regulated. We need candidates like Kamala Harris who will take gun safety seriously. That’s why we’re doing everything in our power to secure the youth vote. Over the next few months, we plan to contact ONE MILLION young people. But we can’t do it alone.
Can you chip in even just $5 today to support our grassroots organizing efforts? We know we’ve been asking a lot, but our future is on the line so we can’t give up.
