Hello Friend, 
 
When we remember 1October, our thoughts revolve around those who were
senselessly killed, the survivors, and their families. But it's equally
important that we remember which leaders have stood with our community to
act to prevent future tragedy - and those who do not. And when those in
the latter category eschew the hard-fought progress Nevada has made on gun
violence prevention since 1October, it simply must be called out. Which
brings us to Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo… 
 
[ [link removed] ]Watch Lombardo's shameful surrender to the Gun Lobby
 
Sheriff Lombardo wants to be the next Governor of Nevada. But [ [link removed] ]he is
clearly preoccupied with pandering to the gun lobby than keeping our
community safe. His statement that, “it’s the person, not the gun,”
completely ignores that common sense gun laws prevent tragedies like
1October. Background checks and Extreme Risk Protection Orders are
designed to stop mass shootings, community violence and domestic violence.
Instead, Lombardo chooses to blame, “liberals.” He should know better that
divisive and dismissive comments are the opposite of what Nevada
communities need to be protected from gun violence. 
 
The most deadly mass shooting in modern history cannot be simply
hand-waived. Until leaders acknowledge the factor of accessibility of
deadly weapons, they will merely be pointing fingers, rather than acting
to keep their communities safe. Today we choose to honor victims,
survivors, not just with reflection, but with effort. Part of that is
[ [link removed] ]holding those with power accountable for their disrespect and lack of
action around gun safety. 
 
 
Sincerely,



[ [link removed] ]    Tell Lombardo to Explain Himself & Share
