ICYMI: Last week, we launched Giffords Center for Violence Intervention with a commitment to unlock $2 billion for violence intervention strategies nationwide. These programs—and the people who power them—are critical to saving lives. giffords.org/press-release/…

The families in Uvalde should not have to beg the governor to act after their children were killed in the sixth major mass shooting to happen on his watch. Abbott won't lead, but these incredible families continue to lead in his place. Let's vote him out and keep our kids safe.

Firearm suicide in America is a crisis that claims an average of 65 lives a day. We have a firearm suicide rate 12 times that of peer nations—but not because people in other countries don't struggle with suicidal crises. Interrupting gun access can prevent these deaths. 🧵

First, law enforcement told Abbott that his extreme idea to allow people to carry loaded guns in public without a background check, training, or permit would make us LESS safe. Then, he ignored them and made it law. Now, we're less safe as mass shootings in Texas are up by 62%.

There have been no substantive federal gun laws passed after the #SandyHook tragedy & now 109 people die from guns every single day. Call your Congressional Reps at 202-224-3121 to demand action. Ask them to pass these common sense gun laws NOW! newtownactionalliance.org/our-policy-pri…

Six years ago, after the horrific, senseless, preventable shooting at #SandyHook, @MomsDemand began fiercely and fearlessly taking on the most powerful lobby this nation has ever seen – and we are winning. We have become the David to the @NRA’s Goliath.
