John, I want to make sure you saw Mark's message.
In just the last couple days, an incredible 20,941 people have stepped up to sign our petition demanding Congress finally make high-capacity gun ammunition magazines illegal – but I haven't seen you add your name yet.
Every day that Congress fails to vote on this commonsense legislation that might have saved precious lives at Sandy Hook Elementary, more children's lives are at risk. That's why we're counting on you to help us put massive pressure on our lawmakers by reaching 30,000 petition signatures demanding Congress limit the size of gun ammunition magazines to 10 rounds. Will you sign our petition now?

Subject: Sign the petition: Limit high-capacity gun magazines
John,
The shooter who murdered my sweet little Daniel took ten 30-round gun magazines with him into Sandy Hook Elementary. He deliberately left the smaller magazines at home.
It only took him approximately four minutes to shoot 154 bullets, killing 20 students and six educators. In the blink of an eye, Daniel was gone forever.
But as the shooter paused to reload between magazines, 11 children were able to escape. It's hard not to wonder if Daniel might still be here had only smaller magazines been available that day.
It's too late to save my kindhearted boy, but it's not too late to save another parent's child. That's why I need your urgent help. More than a year ago, a bill was introduced in Congress to limit the size of ammunition magazines to 10 rounds – but lawmakers have refused to vote on it.
We cannot allow Congress to continue putting children's lives at risk: That's why it's critical that we collect 30,000 petition signatures demanding lawmakers finally pass this legislation before more lives are senselessly lost. Will you please sign our petition now?

We cannot accept another day of inaction from Congress on gun safety reform. That's why I'm counting on your help to demand lawmakers finally take action to prevent other parents from losing a child to gun violence.
I can't thank you enough for stepping up today – and for all that you do to help me honor Daniel's too-short life. Your support is how we'll continue to make meaningful change that will save lives.
Mark Barden (Daniel's father)
