The Bipartisan Background Checks Act is one of the rare policies that has broad support across the political spectrum. Unfortunately, that universal support does not include the self-interested gun industry or Senate Republicans beholden to their power.

That’s why we are so excited that Jerry is helping to move the ball forward on this critical legislation. Last week it passed the House, but now it moves on to the Senate.

We need to stand together against the power of the NRA to make needed change.

Every day innocent Americans are hurt by gun violence — yet Republicans and the gun lobby they have bent over backwards to support have refused to move forward with the bipartisan background checks legislation that I championed through the Judiciary Committee over two years ago. That’s why I’m so proud to be reintroducing background checks this week. Background checks are broadly popular with the American public, and, most importantly, they will save lives. Sign on now to join me in demanding that Republicans join Democrats, and the majority of the American people, to work with us and move forward with this critical and popular gun safety bill!   STOP GUN VIOLENCE NOW   I have been fighting for gun control for years and won’t give up. We have lost far too many Americans to gun violence. I am sick and tired of Republicans offering nothing but “thoughts and prayers.” Republican inflexibility and constant bowing to pressure from the NRA have prevented Congress from doing what’s right for America’s families and children. Urge House Republicans to find the will to act on gun reform legislation now. Sign on here.
