I can't possibly overstate what the victories in Virginia mean for our country, John. The NRA is headquartered in Virginia. That's right — gun safety candidates won on the NRA's own home turf. If this isn't a referendum on the gun lobby, then I don't know what is.
Two things are strikingly clear from last night —
- It's no longer up for debate that voters want stronger gun laws.
- Brady's months of organizing and building the movement in Virginia were a major success.
Nearly 80% of Brady-endorsed candidates won in Virginia. That's huge. Now, as we head into 2020, we need to scale our work. We need to make sure what happened in Virginia happens across the country. Can you help us scale our work for 2020 and make a matching gift today?
