CNN: 'I love you': Senior at Apalachee High School texts his mom after gunshots ring out

Brady is currently monitoring the situation in Madison, WI, following the devastating school shooting that killed at least two people and left more injured.

The first 24 hours after a mass shooting are the most critical. We owe it to the victims, survivors, and their families to do something NOW. Join us in sending an urgent message to Congress to demand our lawmakers finally take action to stop school shootings and protect our kids:

John,

Mere hours after returning to school for their last week of classes before winter break, children and staff at Abundant Life Christian School were under attack by a gunman who killed at least two people and injured five others.

Details are still emerging from this terrifying incident, but the undeniable truth is that our children are not safe. Right now, gun violence is the number one cause of death for kids and teens in the United States and it demands our lawmakers’ action.

Please, in the face of this tragedy in Madison, will you demand action from our lawmakers to stop school shootings and save our children from being gunned down? Add your name to Brady’s emergency petition right now.

Our children deserve better than this constant carnage. All Americans deserve better.

And we will not accept lawmakers offering thoughts and prayers in the face of yet another tragedy. Children should be safe to learn and grow in their classrooms, instead, they are at risk every day.

John, it is long past time for Congress to protect our children from gun violence. They have the power to pass common sense legislation that is proven to save lives – like an assault weapons ban – but their failure to do so has allowed far too many tragedies to occur at schools across the country. We must demand action in the face of another preventable tragedy.

Please join me in calling on lawmakers to stop school shootings and protect our kids. >>

Our hearts are with the victims and families of yet another senseless, preventable school shooting.
