CHANGE STARTS AT THE BALLOT BOX
How do we pass gun safety laws like universal background checks? By electing gun safety champions up and down the ballot.
The majority of Americans care about passing gun safety laws and increasingly want leaders who will make it a priority. That’s why we’re on a mission to elect candidates who will fight for our safety—not gun lobby profits.
This work is critical. From your local sheriff to the commander-in-chief, our elected leaders have the power to save lives. But too many politicians are bought and paid for by the NRA. We need to defeat them at every level, in every state, every time. To do that we are working day and night to elect gun safety candidates nationwide. The stakes are too high not to.
