Students like me are taking on the gun industry and demanding
accountability. Will you, whether you’re a student or not, join us?

This weekend in Las Vegas, I and other Students Demand Action volunteers
went to confront the gun industry head-on at its annual trade show. Guns
are the number one killer of kids and teens in America, yet the gun
industry continues to make them deadlier, and refuse to take any
responsibility for the harm they cause.

The gun industry has created a killer business and we're paying for it
with our lives. That is why we are demanding action. [ [link removed] ]Add your name if
you're ready to join us in holding the gun industry accountable.

demanding accountability from the gun industry in Las Vegas during the gun
industry's trade show, Shot Show.

I got involved with Students Demand Action in 2018, when I was 14 years
old, to honor victims of gun violence and gun violence survivors—but in
those five years, hundreds of thousands more lives have been devastated by
gun violence.

As each day goes on, my motivation to be a part of this movement grows,
because the stakes only get higher. Enough is enough. We must hold the gun
industry accountable because our lives depend on it. We cannot allow our
lives to be beholden to gun industry executives and be silent while the
gun industry profits from our blood.

The movement needs us. As young people, we bring an energy and sense of
resiliency that is necessary to this work. We're following in the
footsteps of young activists who took on the tobacco and opioid industries
and won. Students must lead this movement because our lives depend on it.

I hope you will join us,
