John, we knew something had to change: In the wake of the tragedy at Oxford High School in 2021, all we got were thoughts, prayers, and nothing else from Michigan's Republican-led legislature.
That's why last year, we helped shift the political landscape in Michigan. In the midterm election three months ago, voters made their voices loud and clear, electing Gun Sense Candidates (including six Moms Demand Action volunteers!) to take the majority in the state House and Senate.
People across the country once again demanded that lawmakers take action to end gun violence after the horrific shooting on the Michigan State University campus this week. And this time, Michigan's elected leaders are listening: even before this week's tragedy, our allies in the state legislature were discussing ways to strengthen Michigan's gun laws. This Thursday, they introduced three different bills that can make a real impact on curbing gun violence.
In legislatures across the country, elected leaders are debating gun safety laws. What we do in the next few weeks could reshape the future of gun safety for tens of millions of people. But with gun extremists pushing dangerous new laws and a gun lobby going all out to stop ANY new gun safety bills, we're counting on grassroots supporters to keep us going strong.
We're working in every state to defeat the gun lobby's extremism and enact stronger gun safety measures, and your support is crucial: Fuel our campaigns to pass stronger gun laws and work for a future free from gun violence by making a donation to Everytown and Moms Demand Action today.
