John,

On January 6th, a violent mob of far-right extremists, encouraged and
emboldened by President Trump and his enablers, stormed and vandalized the
U.S. Capitol in an attempt to overturn the results of the Presidential
election. Additionally, threats of armed protests being organized at all
50 state capitols and during the inauguration of President Biden are
growing. This extremist violence has been growing over the past
year—driven in part by the gun lobby and weak gun laws—and is threatening
our democracy and putting lives at risk.

For decades, the gun lobby has peddled the far right's dangerous
conspiracy theories in order to further their "guns everywhere" agenda.
The NRA has consistently disregarded public safety and promoted lax gun
laws that allow dangerous extremists to arm themselves and open carry
firearms at state capitols, like in Michigan, and at counter protests,
like in Kenosha.

John, the stakes of our fight against the gun lobby's extreme
agenda could not be more clear. Make no mistake, this anti-democracy armed
extremism we are seeing is gun violence.

[ [link removed] ]Fighting for common-sense gun safety laws that will stop armed
extremists and protect our democracy means that we need all the resources
we can get. Can we count on you to help us build our grassroots movement
and end gun violence in America?
