John – “ghost guns” are the newest deadly threat used by prohibited gun buyers and white supremacists to incite violence on our streets and in our communities.
|
They’re hand-built, untraceable guns that evade state and federal firearm regulations and require NO background checks. In less than 15 minutes, anyone with the right blueprints can build a fully functional weapon that’s almost impossible for law enforcement to trace. And their use is on the rise at a startling rate – accounting for nearly 40% of crime guns recently recovered in states like California.
|
Brady is fighting to take action on ghost guns because it’s time we regulate this dangerous loophole – but we’re falling WAY short of our midnight goal to keep it up. Can we count on you to donate $5 or more now to help Brady elect gun violence prevention champions to Congress and the White House so we can take action on deadly, untraceable ghost guns?

These homemade guns come in all shapes and sizes, John, including military-style AR-15 assault rifles – like those used in horrific mass shootings in Las Vegas, Sandy Hook, Parkland, Orlando, and more. There is bipartisan support to regulate ghost guns – but the road to progress runs through the Senate – and Mitch McConnell.
|
Mitch McConnell is further bloodying his hands by refusing to protect our communities from these unregulated firearms. He’s once again living up to the nickname “Massacre Mitch” by putting the gun industry before the safety of Americans.
|
We can’t pass life-saving laws to regulate ghost guns and prevent senseless violence until we defeat the NRA and Mitch McConnell. We’re up against their millions and it won’t be easy – but there’s some good news: Mitch McConnell is in a STATISTICAL TIE with his opponent, and we CAN end his stranglehold on gun safety legislation in November:
|
John, we have one historic chance to vote out Mitch McConnell, defeat the NRA, and elect gun safety champions to Congress and the White House – but we’re falling WAY short of our critical midnight fundraising goal, and we’re counting on your support. Will you donate $5 or more now so we can take action on deadly, untraceable ghost guns and pass gun violence prevention policies that will save lives?

2020 is the year we finally take bipartisan, common-sense action on gun violence – but only if you commit to fighting by our side.
Thanks for all your support,
Team Brady
