Hey John,

Over the past few weeks, we have shared a menu of ways to contact Wisconsin's Joint Committee on Finance and your own state legislators to demand they include gun violence prevention in Wisconsin's 2021-2023 biennial budget, including emailing, tweeting, submitting a comment, and calling them. If you did not take those actions yet, you could do them by clicking here now. 

You can also attend and share your story at a public hearing. The Joint Finance Committee will hold four public hearings on the proposed budget -- three in person and one virtual.
