Gun lobby’s message: do nothing

John, Just hours after Donald Trump casually said he would be open to passing background checks, he was warned by the NRA: No way. The NRA spent $30 million in 2016 to help elect Trump. Now, Wayne LaPierre is calling Trump to warn him to stay away from policy solutions supported by…

Lend us your voice.

John, We have been fighting for an assault weapons ban for years. These weapons are designed for maximum lethality in a minimum amount of time. Increasingly, assault weapons are the weapon of choice for mass shooters and in the wake of the horrifying shootings in El Paso and Dayton…

John, It’s only been four days since the tragic back-to-back shootings in El Paso and Dayton and a spate of gun violence in Chicago. We must channel our outrage into action and let elected officials know we’re not going away. Since this weekend, we’ve been demanding Congress return…

Mitch McConnell calls himself the grim reaper.

John, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell likes to refer to himself as the grim reaper. Perhaps he should since his legislative inaction is costing Americans their lives. More than 150 days ago, the House of Representatives passed a bipartisan bill to expand background checks. Th…

What Trump just said.

John, Did you see Donald Trump’s press conference just now? Trump said that he condemned hatred and bigotry. But his words are hollow. Donald Trump has spent the past three years in office vilifying his opponents, minority groups, and anyone who stands up to oppose him. His misgui…
