Throughout her career, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand has always put the people of New York first. As a lawyer, congresswoman, and senator, she has advocated for communities that are too often overlooked and has championed the needs of her constituents—including the need to keep children and families across her state safe from gun violence. In 2006, she took on a long-term incumbent in a majority Republican district and won, flipping her Upstate New York seat and helping take back the House majority for the first time in more than a decade. In 2009, she stepped up to serve her community once again in the United States Senate, where she’s continued to take on the toughest fights in Washington ever since.
In office, Senator Gillibrand has been a fervent supporter of the many commonsense solutions needed to curb America’s epidemic of gun violence and save lives. She has consistently backed legislation to expand background checks and keep firearms out of the hands of those seeking to do harm to themselves or others. She knows we must take proactive steps to reduce crime and has fought to ban the distribution of blueprints for 3D-printed ghost guns and to prohibit abusive intimate partners and stalkers from accessing guns. In the Senate, Senator Gillibrand has proven she has the courage to stand up to the gun lobby time and again and has worked tirelessly to make New York communities safer by taking on the scourge of gun trafficking. Last year, her bill to make gun trafficking a federal crime, the Hadiya Pendleton and Nyasia Pryear-Yard Gun Trafficking and Crime Prevention Act,was included in the final version of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act—the first major gun safety legislation to be signed into law in nearly thirty years.
With control of the Senate likely to be decided by the slimmest of margins next fall, it is imperative that we reelect leaders like Senator Kirsten Gillibrand who are determined to shape a better, safer future for our families and communities. We’re proud to stand with her and look forward to working hand in hand to pass meaningful gun safety legislation in 2024 and beyond.
