Friend, I wanted to make sure you saw JP’s message about our rally in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday. Will I see you there?

My name is Denise Marks, the chapter leader of Brady Delaware, and I’m joining Brady and advocates to rally for solutions to gun violence — a public health crisis that I, unfortunately, know all too well.

In 2012, my beloved daughter, Emily, died by firearm suicide. She was just 20 years old, a rising sophomore in college, and had her whole life ahead of her. She brought joy to all that knew her.

I can’t bring Emily back, but I can fight for solutions in her honor — and I hope that you’ll join me, friend. Please RSVP for our rally in just TWO days at 2:30 p.m. ET on the National Mall in Washington, D.C.

I hope to see you there.

In solidarity,
Denise Marks
Chapter Leader, Brady Delaware
Gun Violence Survivor

Subject: You’re Invited: Rally for the Public's Health

Friend,

Gun violence — the number one killer of American youth — is an urgent public health crisis in America. Every day, families face the devastating impact of gun violence, which claims hundreds of lives and has scarred entire generations. But just as we’ve overcome other public health crises, we can use those same lessons to reduce gun violence, because this epidemic is preventable.

That’s why we at Team Brady are organizing a rally on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., and we need to see you there. Are you with us?

Rally for the Public’s Health
Wednesday, November 5, Washington, D.C.
2:30 p.m. ET

Please check your email after you sign up for additional information about the event.

During the rally, advocates, survivors, lawmakers, public health professionals, and our partners, like the American Public Health Association, will unite to demand real solutions that are rooted in prevention and care. And as we face attack after attack by the Trump administration, NOW is our chance to show that ending gun violence isn’t just about policy — it’s about protecting the health and safety of everyone in our communities.

Let’s get loud, DMV! Together, we can rally for a future where public health means freedom from gun violence. RSVP now and join us to demand a safer, healthier future on Wednesday, November 5, in Washington, D.C.

All the best,

JP Thomas
