The gun lobby and their allies have become unhinged. We're taking them on, and we need you with us. Donate to help us stop gun extremism and power our movement to end gun violence in America >>
John, here's the kind of extreme gun legislation we're up against:
- Armed parades and militias: Lawmakers are currently advancing a bill in Idaho that would let people form militias and openly parade with firearms—including white supremacist militias.
- Restrictions on enforcing federal gun laws: Missouri and several other states have passed laws that restrict state and local law enforcement officers from enforcing federal gun laws.
- Permitless carry of concealed handguns in public spaces: Just in the past week, multiple state legislatures have advanced permitless carry bills despite strong opposition from constituents, community leaders, and law enforcement. One of the gun lobby's top priorities in recent years, these laws allow people to carry hidden, loaded handguns in public with NO permit, background check, or safety training.
We're taking on the gun lobby's extremism. We're stopping even more bad gun bills and advancing strong gun safety policies in both Republican and Democrat-controlled legislatures. In Florida and Georgia we've launched campaigns to repeal Shoot First laws where they were first championed by the NRA nearly two decades ago.
No matter what the gun lobby tries next, Everytown and Moms Demand Action will be ready to defend gun safety. We depend on grassroots donations from supporters like you to power our work. Rush your donation of $9 or whatever you can today >>

Last week, President Joe Biden highlighted background checks, repealing the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, and other common-sense life-saving measures in the State of the Union address. From the White House and Congress to state capitols and city halls, we're working with gun sense champions to advance gun safety at all levels of government.
With your help, we will continue our tireless efforts to stop the gun lobby's agenda and work for a future free from gun violence. Donate today.
Thank you,
