Hi John,
They say it’s about crime. That it’s about keeping our streets safe. About
supporting communities. About protecting lives.
But this week, the Trump Administration slashed over half of all federal
funding for community gun violence prevention — gutting $158 million that
kept people alive in cities like Chicago, Memphis, and Baltimore.
These programs worked. They trained conflict mediators, connected
survivors to trauma care, and stopped shootings before they happened. In
Baltimore, they helped drive homicides to their lowest level in nearly a
decade. And now, they’re gone.
So what do they really mean when they say it’s about crime?
Because if you kill the very programs proven to prevent violence, maybe it
was never about safety at all — maybe it was about control, punishment,
and silencing the people closest to the pain.
At March For Our Lives, we know what real safety looks like:
* Outreach workers de-escalating conflict before police ever arrive.
* Survivors with resources, not retaliation.
* Black and Brown communities building peace, and being funded to do it.
We’re fighting to protect these life-saving programs, and to call out the
cruelty of leaders who pretend to care while pulling the rug out from
under the people doing the work.

Because safety isn’t something you fund after violence happens. You fund
it so violence never happens at all.
