John, this week marked five years since the Rancho Tehama shooting in Tehama, CA. The gunman used a homemade ‘ghost gun’ in his eight-hour shooting spree, firing at pedestrians, vehicles, and children in their school. In all, five people were killed and multiple others were injured, including children.

Tragically, the community of Tehama, CA, is not alone. In recent years, ghost guns have proliferated across the country, becoming the weapon of choice for prohibited purchasers. You see, the Rancho Tehama gunman was barred from purchasing and possessing firearms. Yet he was able to obtain a ghost gun because, at the time, they were unregulated and required no Brady Background Check.

But over the past year, we’ve taken decisive action to end the proliferation of ghost guns.

Brady Legal is defending the victims and survivors of the Rancho Tehama shooting in our nation’s first civil lawsuit against the ghost gun industry. In California, Delaware, Illinois, and New York, we passed state laws to ban ghost guns, and we passed bans in four localities across California. And federally, we helped get the Biden-Harris administration’s rule to regulate ghost guns over the finish line.

We’re working tirelessly across Congress, the courts, and our communities to combat ghost guns and save lives — and we won’t give up. But we cannot do this vitally important work alone. We rely on support from dedicated grassroots supporters like you. Please, John, will you rush a gift to Brady right now? Your donation today will help us combat ghost guns, represent gun violence victims and survivors in court, and save lives. [[link removed]]

Nearly one week after an Ingraham High School student was shot and killed on the Seattle, WA, campus, hundreds of students joined in solidarity and walked out of class [[link removed]] to demand action from their local elected officials. These students have had ENOUGH of senseless violence plaguing their communities and are advocating for common-sense solutions to end it, including legislation to bolster Seattle’s safe gun storage law and passing a ban on assault weapons.

Brady Board Member and Seattle Chapter Leader Amanda Turner with activists (r)

We thank the students of Ingraham High School for taking action to drive life-saving change in their community and classrooms. No one should have to live with the fear of being shot and killed in school, at places of worship, at the grocery store, or anywhere else in U.S. Please join us in recognizing these students’ efforts by sharing our tweet.
