Danielle speaking to Senator Keith Perry with other Moms Demand Action volunteers in his Tallahassee office.
** Two weeks ago, I sat down with Sen. Keith Perry and Rep. Chuck Clemons’ office with volunteers from Moms Demand Action.
------------------------------------------------------------
We brought them the facts:
✅
2,849 Floridians were shot and killed by a gun last year - twice as many were wounded and survived.
✅
Gun violence is the number one killer of US children and teens.
✅
States saw a 13-15% increase in homicide rates after passing permitless carry laws.
And urged them to oppose the permitless carry bill which would:
❌ Allow anyone to conceal carry a firearm in public, with no permit, safety training, or background check.
❌ Downgrade knowingly carrying a firearm in a "sensitive area" (schools, gov't building) from felony to misdemeanor.
The large majority of Floridians oppose permitless carry. ([link removed]) But our legislators don’t care: this Thursday and Friday, the Florida House is going to vote on permitless carry.
Join me and send a message to Florida lawmakers, urging them to oppose the bill!

Keep up the good fight. If we are going to keep our communities safe from gun violence - it’s going to take all of us.
