John – after rallying for action to prevent gun violence and
sending hundreds of thousands of emails and calls to our U.S. Senators
during their August recess, we're preparing for Congress to return to
Washington next week. We know the pressure we've been putting on the
Senate is working, and now we need them to take meaningful action. We need
them to pass background checks for all gun sales and a strong Red Flag
law.

[ [link removed] ]Keep the pressure on right now by calling one of your Senators and
urging them to support background checks on all gun sales and a strong Red
Flag law.

[ [link removed] ]CALL NOW

We know that the shooter who killed 7 people and wounded 25 others in West
Texas last weekend should not have been able to purchase his firearm and
would have failed a background check. But he exploited a loophole in our
federal law...precisely the kind of loophole the Senate can close by
taking action and passing a bill requiring background checks on all gun
sales.

We also know that many shooters who use firearms to harm themselves or
others exhibit identifiable warning signs ahead of time, and that passing
a strong Red Flag law might give law enforcement and family members a
chance to save lives by temporarily removing the gun in those dangerous
situations.

We need the Senate to take action so that no more lives are cut short and
no more families have to suffer because of weak gun laws. [ [link removed] ]Make your
call now and tell your Senator how urgently we need background checks on
all gun sales and a strong Red Flag law.

Thank you for taking action,

Rob Wilcox
Deputy Director of Policy and Strategy
Everytown for Gun Safety
