Trump Lies About Guns
Sep 23, 2020
CHANGE STARTS AT THE BALLOT BOX
How do we pass universal background checks in 2021? Flip the Senate and White House in 2020.
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 election year is critical. We need to elect a gun safety majority in the Senate, strengthen our majority in the House, and defeat the NRA’s #1 ally, Donald Trump. To do that we are working day and night to elect gun safety candidates up and down the ballot nationwide. The stakes are too high not to.
Once elected, our new leaders will have the mandate to take historic action to make our country safer. But progress in 2021 and beyond requires winning across the board on Election Day—and that depends on the work we put in now.
