Let's not mince words: Gun manufacturers have avoided any responsibility for the last 20 years as their guns destroy our communities. They have enabled shootings, murders, and extremism—all while raking in record profits from the carnage.

For too long, gun manufacturers have been able to flood our communities with guns and get away with no consequences. They've spent more than 20 years resisting any efforts at transparency and accountability—even as their greed destroys lives across the country.
And in those 20 years, the majority of their "innovations" have been to make guns more lethal or find new ways to circumvent existing gun laws.
We know they are unlikely to do what's right, no matter how many lives it costs.
That's why we're gearing up to break the status quo and do more than ever before to demand change.
These gun manufacturers are responsible for their products and business practices. They can do more to prevent guns from getting into the criminal market, innovate towards safer products, and reform their predatory marketing tactics. It does not have to be this way.
Gun manufacturers can help prevent gun violence and make our communities safer. We need to demand they do exactly that.
If you're willing to help hold gun manufacturers accountable, sign our petition today.
When this movement shows up, we get action. And we never fail to show up—even when the road ahead is long.
I'm so grateful to have you alongside us in this fight.
