Rep. Lucy McBath was elected to Congress in 2018, when she defeated an NRA-backed Republican and flipped her district from red to blue. McBath made history as the first woman of color to represent her district.
McBath has always been committed to advocating for justice – but after losing her son to senseless gun violence in 2012, McBath took on the fight for common-sense gun reforms by leading rallies, meeting with elected officials in D.C., and eventually running for Congress to make change at the federal level.
