Friends -
In the past 24 hours, two developments have underscored the public safety crisis gun violence poses to the nation.
Late Sunday night in Fresno, California, a shooting at a backyard party left four dead and six wounded.
Then, this Monday morning, a gunman opened fire outside a Walmart in Duncan, Oklahoma where at least three people were shot and killed.
The failure to protect our communities, families, and children is a waking nightmare that needs to end.
If we don’t act, generations of Americans will expect gun violence to be a public safety threat that could change their lives no matter where they live.
We should refuse to live in a world where our children live in constant fear of gunfire.
We don’t have to live with this dominating our lives. America has solved seemingly insurmountable problems before, and we can do it again.
But not if politicians like President Trump and Mitch McConnell continue to take millions from the NRA while not even allowing a vote on gun safety legislation like the Bipartisan Background Checks Act.
Americans are ready to vote in leaders next November who are committed to making this a priority from day one.
