John, this is a big victory for gun safety in America.
Today, the U.S. Senate voted to confirm Steve Dettelbach as the Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. As ATF Director, Steve Dettelbach will play a crucial role in making our communities safer by enforcing our gun laws, taking on white supremacists, and going after rogue gun dealers who are flooding our streets with illegal guns.
And yesterday, we joined President Biden to celebrate the passage of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the first major federal gun safety legislation to become law in nearly 26 years.
These victories are watershed moments for the gun safety movement and further proof that when we elect the right people, we can break the logjam in Congress around this life-or-death issue.
As we gear up for the midterm elections in November, our mission is simple: We can make even more progress if we defeat candidates beholden to the gun lobby and elect more Gun Sense Candidates.
That's why the Everytown Victory Fund is working to elect candidates across the country who will take on the gun lobby's extremism and advocate for life-saving gun safety policies. Donate now to help Gun Sense Candidates win at the ballot box this year.
Thank you for being with us,
Everytown Victory Fund
