This week, John, America’s gun violence epidemic inflicted mass carnage in states across the country:

Yet again, we witnessed entire communities devastated by acts of gun violence, including high-profile mass shootings, domestic violence, urban community violence, and so much more. Congress is simply not acting quickly enough — even as gun violence shows no sign of slowing in the summer months ahead.

It’s why Brady is working tirelessly on the state level right now. And we’re ushering in major wins to keep our communities safe.

In
Nevada,
our
advocacy
helped
send
a
bill
to
ban
untraceable
“ghost
guns”
to
Gov.
Sisolak’s
desk
for
his
signature.
*
In
New
York,
we
advanced
a
bill
that
would
be
the
first
state
law
to
enable
the
gun
industry
to
be
held
accountable
for
flooding
our
streets
with
illegal
guns.
*
In
Virginia,
we
joined
Gov.
Northam
to
sign
three
life-saving
bills
into
law,
including
banning
firearms
from
the
state
capital
and
voting
booths
and
blocking
guns
from
convicted
domestic
abusers.
*
In
California,
we
advanced
a
crucial
bill
that
would
require
California
to
track,
analyze,
and
report
crime
gun
data
to
prevent
the
flow
of
illegal
firearms
into
neighborhoods.

Even when the Senate is gridlocked and as we fight to end the filibuster, we’re making life-saving progress in states across the country. We’re passing sensible solutions to prevent the bloodshed we saw this week. You saw what we can achieve in states like Nevada, New York, California, and Virginia with your help. Will you consider supporting Brady’s work in states across the country to prevent gun violence? [[link removed]] Your donation — even if it’s just $5 — will bolster our efforts to save lives.

Celebrate Gun Violence Awareness Month with Brady!

[link removed] [[link removed]]June kicks off Gun Violence Awareness Month! With an epidemic like gun violence, there's much to understand — like the many different forms, why it continues, the people we’ve lost, and those fighting against it. In recognition of this month, we’re committed to educating you about gun violence in America while uplifting the incredible — and sometimes devastating — stories of survivors, activists, and more.
This week, we remember and honor 15-year-old Hadiya Pendleton [[link removed]] , who should have celebrated her 24th birthday on Wednesday. But eight years ago, and less than a week after performing at President Obama's second inauguration, she was shot and killed outside of her school. The #WearOrange movement against gun violence was started by Hadiya’s friends and family. Throughout June, we #WearOrange in recognition of Hadiya and the more than 100 people who are killed with guns every day in America. Please join us in recognizing Hadiya and Gun Violence Awareness Month.

[[link removed]]ICYMI: Learn More About Our Jaw-Dropping Exposé on the ATF

[link removed] [[link removed]]Last week, USA Today published our years-long collaboration [[link removed]] on the shocking, lethal failures of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) in overseeing the gun industry and stopping the flow of illegal firearms.

We revealed that even when reckless gun dealers knowingly break the law, they’re allowed to stay in business — which means they continue to flood our streets and neighborhoods with trafficked guns and fuel our nation’s gun violence epidemic. Watch our video and listen to our new podcast episode for an exclusive, deeper dive into what we found through our investigation.

Notoriety and infamy is a common motivating factor for those who commit mass casualties. In an effort to reduce future tragedies and protect public safety, the survivor-led No Notoriety [[link removed]] campaign challenges the media to not identify the shooter when reporting on tragedies like mass shootings.
This week, we’re joined by the founder of No Notoriety, Tom Teves, as he shares how his campaign came to be, why it’s so important, and how we can all minimize harm while talking about high-profile mass shootings.
