Hey John, it's Tre.
Last Tuesday, I joined over 100 advocates, survivors, and community leaders for the One Aim Coalition Advocacy Day in Springfield to make it clear that when our communities suffer, we won’t stay silent.
March For Our Lives organizers from Palatine showed up alongside G-PAC, Brady, Purpose Over Pain, and other groups to protest for gun law reform at the Illinois State Capitol. We’ve seen what happens when action is delayed, and we’re not willing to wait any longer.
In addition to demanding stronger gun laws, we also showed up to fight for access to clearance rate data from police departments. Too many families are still waiting for justice in unsolved gun violence cases, and they shouldn’t be left in the dark wondering if their loved one’s case is still being worked on or forgotten altogether.
I got into this work because I lost people I love to gun violence. But what keeps me going are moments like Tuesday, where you can feel just how hard people are willing to fight for change.
We’re pushing for real investments in community violence intervention, stronger gun laws, and support for those impacted by gun violence. If you’re ready to help us keep the pressure on lawmakers, make a donation of $20.25 today.
Thanks for being in this with us,
Trevon “Tre” Bosley
March For Our Lives Board Co-Chair
