RESPONDING TO AMERICA’S ONGOING TRAGEDY
The summer of 2022 has been an especially brutal one. Gun violence has invaded and impacted nearly every aspect of our American way of life. Hundreds of innocent lives have been lost already as of this writing, and people from all walks of life across our nation are experiencing tremendous grief and loss of loved ones they should not have had to bury.
A COMPLEX SITUATION, ONE SIMPLE SOLUTION
It is said that the best solutions are often the simplest. However the remedies people are pursuing to curtail gun violence are both complex and not completely effective. Critics of the recent gun safety bill signed by President Biden say it falls short of its goals. They are correct. The main reason why is because none of the solutions address the one common factor in all gun deaths: that BULLETS are what kill people.
Our mission, therefore, is to push Congress to ban the bullets that are being used in these mass murders. We can achieve that goal with your help. (See What Can I Do? to learn more)
