John —

In the five years since the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, teenage survivors have turned into lifelong activists. They took up a cause that never should have been forced upon them because they saw that action was not coming soon enough.

It’s long past time to pass a new ban on assault weapons.

As President Biden said in the State of the Union address earlier this month, when the 1994 assault weapons ban was in effect, deaths from mass shootings fell. When it expired, they rose sharply.

The evidence is clear. We need a new assault weapons ban NOW. If you agree, take just a moment to add your name to our petition here calling on the GOP to get on board >>> [[link removed]]

Last year, an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas suffered the third-deadliest school shooting in American history. At Uvalde, and at the massacres in Parkland and Sandy Hook before, the murderers used AR-15-style weapons to commit unspeakable violence.

John, there are too many of these weapons of war too easily available, and they should not be on our streets.

President Biden and I have long called for a ban on assault weapons, but we haven’t been able to enact it because Republicans refuse to prioritize saving American lives over advancing their political agenda. They refuse to see what is blindingly obvious: that America has a gun violence problem.

Our children are being murdered in their schools. We cannot allow it to stand. John, on the 5th anniversary of the Parkland shooting, I join survivors in a demand for action. Please, sign on to tell Republicans to set partisanship aside and ban assault weapons NOW. [[link removed]]
