IT'S THE GUNS
IT'S THE GUNS
There have been over 420 school shootings since Columbine. Each day 12 children die from gun violence in America. Another 32 are shot and injured.1
Republicans refuse to act, gun manufacturers refuse to act.
Since 1999 there have been hundreds of bills written to curb gun violence by banning assault weapons, and republicans have blocked every meaningful one. It’s the guns, it’s the Trump party, it’s the MAGA extremist politicians putting guns before kids.
Meanwhile…
The Trump administration has a landing page for “Make America Safe Again”. The landing page says nothing about the gun violence epidemic facing our nation, our schools and killing our children. Firearms are the leading cause of death for children!
Republican leaders are refusing to sign legislation to limit the types of guns sold, how they are sold, and who they are sold to. The same leaders are spending millions of government dollars, person-power and time to “protect” Americans against manufactured threats. Trump is sending troops to cities with declining rates of violence, ICE agents to schools and communities, banning people from bathrooms, banning words from our government pages, AND he’s doing nothing on guns.
What we can do:
Ask your friends to help flyer (Link to our PDF is here!)
Call your representatives everyday for 100 days demanding they take action
If you’re a parent, talk to every friend’s parent about guns in the house
“Do you have guns in your home? If you have a gun please let us know how it is stored. We don’t have a gun in our home. ”
