Friends,

Tomorrow is the anniversary of the devastating school shooting in Parkland, Florida at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. As we prepare to honor the innocent lives lost, we're thinking about how to prevent future tragedies.

During the pandemic, we have been fortunate to see a drop in school shootings. But the tragic reality is that they may tick back up again as more students go back to school. We must take immediate action to make our students safer.


That's why we're reaching out today and asking for your support as we urge Congress to pass universal background checks.

Will you add your name and call on Congress to pass universal background checks? The more people who sign on, the more momentum we will have to get Congress to act now.

Right now, we have a new Congress and gun safety majority in both the House and Senate. If we act quickly, it's possible that universal background checks could be brought to the floor of the House as soon as this month.

This pandemic will not last forever. But our return to "normal" must not be a return to children scared to go to school, fearful that preventable gun violence might happen in their classrooms.

So use the link below and add your name today to tell Congress you support universal background checks.

Thank you in advance for adding your name and taking meaningful action,

Team Giffords
