The Senate must eliminate the filibuster, pass meaningful gun violence prevention legislation, and save lives.
John, our hearts are breaking for the families of Uvalde.
We are devastated by the loss of 19 children and two teachers in yet another school massacre. What happened in Texas was a shameful reminder that our government has failed (again) to prevent senseless gun violence.
For too long, this country has been suffering under an untreated epidemic of gun violence that breaks our communities. And for too long, we’ve seen common-sense gun laws blocked by politicians in the pocket of the gun lobby.
Change is possible. Cori and House Democrats have already passed multiple bills that would help stop mass shootings. But these common-sense pieces of legislation including bills to require background checks and close loopholes are waiting for action in the Senate.
No more excuses. The Senate must eliminate the filibuster, pass meaningful gun violence prevention legislation, and save lives. NOW.
John, we need to come together. Please, add your name right now to demand the Senate abolishes the filibuster and passes legislation to save lives immediately.

Gun violence prevention policies are among the most popular in our country. New polling conducted after the shooting in Uvalde shows 88% of American voters support background checks on all gun sales and 67% of American voters support banning assault-style weapons.
But there is one simple reason these bills are not law: Because the NRA pays off politicians to block the legislation. To every one of those Senators, there's a lot of blood on their hands.
If we do not act now, the heartbreaking truth is that more innocent children and teachers, folks going to the grocery store or church, and everyday people going about their daily routines will lose their lives to senseless acts of gun violence.
We must address this public health emergency. Will you add your name to our petition right now to call on the Senate to abolish the filibuster and pass meaningful gun violence prevention legislation now?
Together,
Team Cori
