Hey John, I want to make sure that you saw that you are invited to WAVE's April statewide Action Team meeting today! At the meeting, I will present an overview of the gun violence prevention items in Wisconsin's budget and explain how you can take action, including visiting our action page and submitting letters to the editor. I'll also provide you with ideas on how you can share your story on social media or at one of the upcoming budget hearings. >>Sign up here to attend WAVE's virtual Statewide Action Team meeting TODAY, Wednesday, April 14, 2021, to learn different ways you can express your support for the gun violence prevention provisions in the budget.
