The Supreme Court will make another consequential ruling on gun violence prevention by this summer. Its decision will be the difference between regulating “ghost guns” or letting these dangerous firearms be unserialized and untraceable. That’s why we’re counting on activists to speak out to stop another gun lobby victory in the highest court in the land. Can you respond to Brady’s urgent poll today, John?

Hi John,
Have you heard of ghost guns?
These dangerous, assemble-at-home firearms pose a critical threat to American safety and undermine gun laws – and we at Brady are fighting tooth and nail to ensure the Supreme Court upholds their regulation this term.

The Biden-Harris Administration understood this national threat and took action to regulate ghost guns – but to no one’s surprise, the gun lobby immediately set to work negating the life-saving rule the Administration put in place. Now, the Supreme Court will hand down a decision that could put American lives at risk.
Without Biden’s life-saving rule, ghost guns are unregulated, untraceable, and unserialized. They do not require a background check, meaning anyone can get a kit online and assemble these deadly weapons at home.

I won't mince words: if the Supreme Court sides with the gun lobby again, more people will die. The Supreme Court must prioritize American lives over gun lobby interest and profit.
We’re counting on Brady activists to make public opinion undeniably clear to the Court:

Should ghost guns be regulated?

Ghost guns have become weapons of choice for criminals and their proliferation cannot be ignored – in fact, from 2017 to 2021, there was a 1000% increase in ghost guns recovered from crimes.
We’re hopeful the Court will side with the safety of the American people, but this ultra-conservative Court, with a conservative majority solidified by former President Trump, has proven that it has no issue ignoring the safety of the American people in favor of gun lobby rhetoric, so we cannot risk staying quiet.

The gun lobby would rather let Americans die than allow firearm regulations to address our modern realities, but Brady is fighting tooth and nail to stop them. We need to show an outpouring of support for regulating these deadly ghost guns. That's why we're searching for 137 more activists from your area to speak out before midnight tonight. Please, John, answer our urgent poll now:

Ghost guns are a national threat to which we must respond – and that’s exactly what Brady is doing. We won’t stand down to the gun lobby or their deadly agenda. Your support helps us keep fighting.
