Friends -

1 school shooting. 2 students dead. 1 community devastated.

This type of tragedy feels like it has become far too routine, almost like it's normal -- but it is not normal.

Some may say we have become numb to this violence -- but we must never succumb to powerlessness.

We must remember that elected officials who side with the NRA have failed us time and time again.

What will it take for Mitch McConnell to side with the American people over the gun lobby that pays him?

The answer? Pressure, and lots of it.

We need your help to pressure the Senate to act immediately, so help us by taking the first step today:

Sign your name: tell Mitch McConnell and the Senate that it's time to hold a debate and a vote on universal background checks. Thousands of lives can be saved, we just need to act.

It's been 262 days since the House passed the universal background checks bill.

Mitch McConnell is hoping that we will give up, but we refuse to.

We need your support whether that means attending town halls, calling or writing to your elected officials, or donating to emails like this to give us the resources we need to lobby the Senate.

Your voice is important in this fight, so please take the first step and add your name to demand action.

Thanks for standing with us,

The team at Giffords
