We need to take major steps in order to address the epidemic of gun violence and firearm deaths in the United States. Everyone wants to reduce firearm injuries and death. There are some very simple ways to accomplish this.
1. A National Safe Storage Act would standardize appropriate storage. This would prevent children from accidentally shooting each other and it would prevent children from carrying improperly stored firearms to school. This should be submitted as a line item bill in the 118th Congress.
2. Federal weapon specific Training, Education, and Qualification Requirement for purchase.
3. Federal Universal Background Check with a completion for transfer stipulation.
4. Federal Requirement for a minimum three day waiting period to purchase a firearm.
5. Federal standardization of Extreme Risk Protection Order criteria and requirements.
Guns – including accidental deaths, suicides, and homicides – killed 4,357 children (ages 1-19 years old) in the United States in 2020, or roughly 5.6 per 100,000 children.
Federal standardization of the above common sense measures would work to drastically reduce firearm injuries in the United States.
The only way to pass legislation to end the epidemic levels of gun violence in our country is to take back the House! ([link removed]) We are pushing to raise $4357 by the end of the week to help us reach our March FEC deadline goal!
We desperately need leadership that can bring divided factions in Congress together to take action on this critical issue. I promise to build the bipartisan support needed to champion these efforts in the US House.
