John, we’re still
reeling from the aftermath of the latest school shooting at Abundant Life
Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin.
A student and teacher were killed and at least another six people were
injured, including two with life-threatening injuries.
We are outraged that this is happening yet again in our country, but not
surprised. This tragedy marked the 83rd school shooting in 2024—surpassing
2023 for the most school shootings in a single year.
And yet, already we’ve seen anti-gun safety leaders call for NOTHING more
than “thoughts and prayers.”
We’ll say it again and again—we DON’T NEED more thoughts and prayers if
they are followed with inaction. We NEED our elected officials to WAKE UP
to the reality of what’s happening. We deserve to feel safe, we deserve to
live without fear, and we deserve a future without the threat of gun
violence.
Representative Mark Pocan, who represents the district where this shooting
occurred, said in a social media post:
“Thoughts and prayers without action means more school shootings, more
dead kids. More ACTION is needed by our elected officials. And more
BACKBONE to stand up to gun manufacturers. This is uniquely a United
States problem that doesn't have to happen.”
We wholeheartedly agree. We demand action.
Today, we’re coming to you with an important ask: to take action with us.
If you’re tired of reading the same headlines, if you’re tired of living
in fear of going to school, if you’re tired of waiting for our leaders to
pass meaningful gun safety legislation, then we need you to join us.
