Friends,Yakima. Monterey Park. Half Moon Bay. 3 mass shootings – all within the span of 48 hours.

As much as I want to say I can’t believe it, I can . We have an epidemic on our hands, and “thoughts and prayers” aren’t going to solve it. Gun violence continues to bring preventable tragedy and immeasurable grief across our country, to the point where every aspect of our lives has been impacted.

For years, my Democratic colleagues and I have fought to reinstate the assault weapons ban that prevented civilians from purchasing weapons of war that have been used in countless mass shootings since the ban expired in 2004. However, the corporate gun lobby has stood in the way of this common-sense reform time and time again.

Enough is enough, friends. We can’t let the NRA stop us from passing this life-saving legislation any longer. Please join me in calling on Congress to pass an assault weapons ban by adding your name to our petition >> [[link removed]]

I am proud to have voted for the first comprehensive gun safety legislation package to pass through Congress in decades last year, but that was only the first step of addressing this crisis. We need to get the rest of the country on par with the laws we have here in Massachusetts to bring an end to this nightmare and ensure Americans can feel safe in their own communities once again.

Right now, our reality means we can’t even process, grieve, or investigate one mass shooting before the next one occurs. The United States is the only country where this pattern exists – and it’s because we have failed American families in doing what needs to be done.

It doesn’t have to be this way, friends. The solution is right in front of us, we just need to act. I hope you’ll join me in calling on our leaders to do their part in ending gun violence and banning assault weapons immediately >> [[link removed]]

Thank you for fighting for our families and communities.

In solidarity,

Lori
