John,

The NRA is fear mongering again. But it's not just words on the internet, there are real and deadly consequences to their lies.

Banning assault weapons does not infringe on anyone's right to own a firearm, John, banning assault weapons saves lives. If the NRA doesn't want to ban AR-15's, they are an enemy of the American people.

Weapons like the AR-15 are designed for war, to kill as many people as possible, as quickly as possible. These firearms were never meant to be used by untrained civilians, but now they have become the choice for mass shooters. AR-15's have been used to kill

10 in Boulder,
10 in Buffalo,
21 in Uvalde, TX,
17 in Parkland,
11 in Pittsburgh,
26 in Sutherland Springs,
59 in Las Vegas,
49 in Orlando,
26 in Sandy Hook,
12 in Aurora...

Banning these weapons means stopping the next tragedy and saving lives. The NRA is ignoring the reality of our country and using their platform to galvanize Second Amendment extremists to block assault weapons bans while loosening gun laws – and we won't stand for it. We can't.

Right now, the Senate and House have introduced legislation to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines and we need to make it clear that the majority of the American people support these bills.

That's why we're reaching out now. We need a surge of grassroots support to overcome the NRA's deadly rhetoric and urge our lawmakers to ban assault weapons, but your signature is still missing from our official petition. Will you add your name to our urgent petition and call on Congress to finally ban assault weapons?

Thank you.
