We the people should decide the next Supreme Court Nominee, John, not President Trump.

In his first term alone, he stacked the Supreme Court with two NRA picks. Now, he's trying to rush a third after the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. But the NRA has already handpicked their Justices. First, with Neil Gorsuch's seat, then with Brett Kavanaugh's seat. And these justices have already indicated they want to expand the Second Amendment.

A third NRA-bought, Trump-appointed Supreme Court Justice would put every single common-sense gun law in America under threat of being rolled back.

We believe the Supreme Court is #OurCourt. On Election Day, The American people are choosing our next president — and that president must be allowed to pick our next Supreme Court Justice. That's what a fair democracy means — that we, the people, get to decide.

An increasingly conservative court presents a tremendous risk to the issue of gun violence, which kills nearly 40,000 Americans [[link removed]] every single year. We cannot allow Trump and McConnell to steal a seat that was once filled by Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a champion for equality, fairness, and safety from gun violence for all Americans.

John, We must fight back for our safety. Visit our new webpage, " ," to learn how you can fight back against this undemocratic threat to all Americans.

[[link removed]] Brady Legal Fighting to Hold Gun Dealers Accountable This week, Brady Legal filed a first-of-its-kind wrongful death lawsuit on behalf of a mother in Michigan against Total Firearms — a Michigian-based gun store with shooting range — following a fatal shooting that killed her 25-year-old daughter, Ducan. This is the first case against a firearms facility with a gun range arising from a murder. The lawsuit accuses Total Firearms, its owners, and employees of negligence and unlawful conduct in failing to take proper safety measures. Total Firearms rented two semi-automatic firearms to a prohibited purchaser and allowed him to leave the facility with one Glock. Less than an hour after leaving the gun facility, the prohibited purchaser killed his ex-girlfriend, Duncan, who priorly obtained a Personal Protective Order (PPO) against him.Brady Legal’s lawsuit seeks to hold Total Firearms accountable for their irresponsible and unlawful act of putting guns into the hands of a man who should never have had access.

Gun violence is a national emergency in America. But time and again the filibuster prevents congress from passing laws that will save lives. Under the leadership of Sen. Mitch McConnell, the Senate has turned into a legislative graveyard. The price of inaction caused by the filibuster is unacceptable. Nearly 40,000 Americans die every single year because of Congress' inability to pass laws that will prevent gun violence.
It is clearer than ever that the U.S. Senate is badly broken and needs to be fixed. The time in now for the Senate end the filibuster [[link removed]] to fix our democracy.
That's why we're joining Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jeff Merkley and advocates from across the country for a virtual event on Wednesday, September 30, at 8 p.m. ET. We can only make progress on the issues that matter most by eliminating the filibuster.

Brady Donor of the Week: Jack Lowe www.bradyunited.org/donor-spotlight/jack-lowe [www.bradyunited.org/donor-spotlight/jack-lowe] Jack and his wife, Mary Lowe, have been Brady supporters for ten years, drawn to an organization that leads with common-sense solutions that unite gun owners and non-gun owners alike. A former gun-owner and hunter, Jack knows that certain guns – like the AR-15 – don’t belong in civilian hands. Jack is also passionate about Brady’s End Family Fire campaign that seeks to educate gun owners about safe gun storage as a means to prevent firearm suicide. Jack notes, correctly, that having a gun in the home drastically increases the risk of suicide. He knows the pain of firearm suicide all too well, having lost a close family member just last year. At Rice University, Jack studied Electrical Engineering, and describes himself as a “science-oriented” person, who thinks gun violence needs to be studied as a public health crisis using science and data. Jack said, “If we pay attention to the science, I know we can get to the bottom of this problem and cut gun deaths.”

[[link removed]] Brady joins all Americans in mourning the loss of the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who was a pioneer for many issues in America, including gun violence prevention. As a lawyer and a judge, she fought tirelessly to make our founding principles, equality and justice, achievable for all Americans. She knew each and every America deserved the right to live safely and freely by enacting strong, common-sense gun laws. As stated by Justice Ginsberg herself, "I would like to be remembered as someone who used whatever talent she had to do her work to the very best of her ability." She has surely superseded this expectation. It's now our responsibility to continue her legacy by making our voice heard. If you believe Justice Ginsberg's seat should be decided by the American people, make your voice heard and call your senator.[link removed] [[link removed]] “We have marched for months, calling for all officers who are responsible for Breonna Taylor’s murder to be held to account. The Grand Jury’s decision today has not done so at all, and that is unacceptable. The violence against Breonna Taylor and the violence against Black communities at the hands of police is not an accident. We need systemic and structural change to stop the killings of Black people - especially Black women such as Breonna Taylor. This decision only underscores how much more work needs to be done and how broad that change must be. It is a slap in the face that apartment walls can receive more justice than the life of a Black woman.” —Team Enough Executive Council member Aalayah Eastmond [[link removed]]DONATE NOW [[link removed]?]
