It was only after returning from these celebrations that we learned about the horrific shooting in Highland Park, Illinois. All of our hearts are broken, again, as we see this attack on Americans at a community gathering to celebrate the Fourth of July. As we continue to learn about the shooting, we are compelled to continue our work together to end gun violence.
We’ve known for a long time that more must be done to address gun violence. And we are glad to report that Lizzie voted for our country’s first gun-safety laws in decades, and President Biden signed them into law. This was an important step, but Lizzie is committed to doing more – including supporting a ban on assault weapons. We will continue our work in honor of these victims, and of the many more who have died this year alone from gun violence.
