John, the deadly intersection of domestic violence and gun
violence has only worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In recent months, there has been a sharp increase in requests to many
domestic violence hotlines as well as text and chat platforms across the
country.^1 Gun sales are surging, which has overwhelmed the background
check system and increased the odds of domestic abusers obtaining guns.^2
And as research has found, loss of employment,^3 fear of separation from
family, and increased abusive behavior are all predictors of intimate
partner homicide.^4
John, these facts are harrowing. But there are proven solutions
to this crisis, ones which a Gun Sense Majority in Congress and the White
House would enact. They would pass laws that keep firearms out of the
hands of domestic abusers, such as closing the loophole that allows
abusive dating partners to have guns. By disrupting abusers' access to
guns, these laws would save lives.
This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we want to remind you that the
crisis of domestic violence and gun violence in our country is on the
ballot. If we're going to address this crisis, we need to elect people who
support common-sense gun safety.
As we approach Election Day and the end of the election, [ [link removed] ]take action by
volunteering virtually or safely in-person to help elect Gun Sense
Candidates up and down the ballot.
[ [link removed] ]VOLUNTEER
Thank you for being a part of this movement, and thank you for taking the
time to learn about this important issue.
