John -- I wanted to make sure you saw Renee’s email about our Quarter 2 deadline. We only have until midnight tonight and we are still $8,011 short of our goal.

We set these goals carefully and strategically to support our work throughout the year. If we miss one of these deadlines, our work will suffer. And in our line of work, that means more lives cut short or forever changed by the terror of gun violence.

Please, give now to help sustain our lifesaving work.

With gratitude, Maureen (she/her)

Hi John,

Last Thursday, six radical Supreme Court Justices made our country less safe. The majority overturned a century-old New York State gun law, rejected decades of precedent, and ignored the will of the American people.

The New York State Rifle & Pistol Association Inc. v. Bruen ruling advances the gun lobby’s “guns everywhere” agenda, claiming that there is a constitutional right to carry a handgun outside the home for self defense.

Simply put: more guns in public means more gun violence. Not only do guns in public spaces increase the risk of violence, but they also increase the fear and anxiety people feel in public. This decreased sense of safety can lead more people to purchase firearms, perpetuating an ever-escalating cycle of violence.

We refuse to accept this as the beginning of the end of commonsense gun laws. The Alliance will continue fighting in the courts, in the legislature, and at the ballot box to demand action to keep our schools and communities safe.

That’s why I am asking you to make a contribution today to support our lifesaving efforts and help us meet our end of second quarter fundraising goal. Can you pitch in $5 before midnight tomorrow?

Make no mistake, this decision is a huge win for gun rights extremists. We can either fight back now or watch them ride this momentum all the way to the midterms.

Thank you for not giving up,
Renée (she/her)
