Congress just introduced The Assault Weapon Ban of 2025 to ban weapons of war that have devastated communities – communities like mine – for too long. In the face of countless tragedies, lawmakers have failed to take action to stop the bloodshed, but not more. It’s time for lawmakers to ban assault weapons and save lives.

I’m counting on you to send an urgent message to Congress and demand they pass The Assault Weapons Ban of 2025. >>

Six and a half minutes. That’s all it took, John.

In six and a half minutes, a gunman armed with an assault weapon killed 14 of my classmates, three school faculty members, and injured 17 others at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, FL.

150 rounds of ammunition were shot in just six and a half minutes.

I was 16 – too young to fight in a war, and yet my school became a war zone: The windows shattering, bullets flying through computers and books. My classmates were slaughtered in front of me. I am only alive today because of Nicholas Dworet, whose body protected me as bullets rained down. He deserves to be here today, along with Helena Ramsay and the 15 others who were brutally gunned down in Parkland.

Assault weapons belong on the battlefield, not in our schools or communities. My classmates and I have seen first-hand how uniquely lethal these weapons are. Lawmakers must pass the Assault Weapons Ban of 2025 and stop the next tragedy. Will you sign onto our urgent petition right now, John?

The tragedy at my school was the deadliest high school shooting in history. And still, lawmakers failed to take action to ban weapons of war.

Their inaction allowed more preventable tragedies to happen at the hands of gunmen armed with assault weapons, including the tragedy in Uvalde, TX, that left 19 elementary school children dead.

But this violence doesn’t have to be inevitable – that’s why I’m so thankful that lawmakers are taking action today. For all my classmates who were senselessly murdered, for all the kids who live in fear that they will be gunned down in their classrooms. I am asking you to join me in urging Congress to pass this life-saving bill:

John, will you add your name to Brady’s urgent petition now and demand that lawmakers pass the Assault Weapons Ban of 2025? >>

The longer we wait to pass common-sense regulations, the closer we get to the next mass shooting. The longer lawmakers wait, the longer children will have to worry about being gunned down.

Thank you for taking action today, John.
