…The White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention is important?
[ [link removed] ]YES!
After YEARS of organizing and pressure from gun violence prevention groups
like March For Our Lives, we achieved a huge win in 2023: the creation of
The White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention (WHOGVP). 🎉
The WHOGVP accomplished a LOT in the mere 16 months it existed, including:
* The Department of Justice issued the most comprehensive guide EVER
released on the secure storage of firearms.
* The Department of Education awarded more than $280 million to hire and
train school mental health professionals.
* The office provided $250 million in funding for community-based
violence prevention initiatives.
* Staff connected with local officials to identify survivor and victim
needs after shootings and worked with federal agencies to provide
resources to impacted communities.
And it WORKED!!!! As more federal resources were poured into preventing
gun violence, the nation saw a 13% DECREASE in gun homicides last year.
The results could 👏 not 👏 be 👏 clearer. 👏
But on day ONE of his presidency, Trump dismantled the Office of Gun
Violence Prevention. All that work came to a dangerous halt.
Trump has already proven, without a doubt, that his presidential term is
all about stopping progress, centering hate, and dragging us backward. He
and his far-right cronies have shown they aren't afraid to erode our
rights and prioritize money from the NRA over kids' lives.
We won’t be discouraged. We will continue to fight back until we achieve a
future free from gun violence.

Your Personal Invite To the Movement Fund 💌💙
At March For Our Lives, we call our monthly supporter program The
Movement Fund.
Why are monthly recurring donors so important? The amount of one-time
individual donations we receive as an organization varies vastly from
month to month.
Without a steady stream of monthly donations coming in our door, it
would be impossible to accurately plan our budgets, create long-term
strategies to win a future free from gun violence, plan and execute
on-the-ground organizing efforts, recruit and train more gun safety
champions, and more.
[ [link removed] ]One of the best ways that you can help sustain our movement is by
becoming a recurring monthly donor. Can you sign up today?
