Giffords PAC Endorses Reverend Raphael Warnock for Reelection to the US Senate
Washington, DC – Today Giffords PAC, the gun violence prevention organization founded by former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, endorsed Reverend Raphael Warnock for reelection to the US Senate. Senator Warnock is a devoted and determined public servant who will work tirelessly to ensure the safety of communities across Georgia.
Former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords:
“Senator Warnock is exactly the leader Georgians need to bring people together in support of commonsense gun laws, because as a pastor and public servant, he’s been doing it his whole life. Since his historic election in 2021, Senator Warnock has been a champion for gun safety legislation in the US Senate. He has consistently supported the solutions we need to end the gun violence epidemic in this country, and he knows that we need to demonstrate the courage to act if we want to create real change. I’m proud to support Senator Warnock for reelection.”
US Senate Candidate Raphael Warnock:
“I am honored to earn the endorsement of Giffords, a leader in the fight to keep our families and communities safe from senseless gun violence. I look forward to continuing our work towards commonsense gun reform on behalf of Georgians and communities across the country.”
Long before the people of Georgia sent him to Washington DC, Raphael Warnock understood the threat that gun violence poses to our schools and houses of worship. As both a father and a pastor, he believes no one should feel afraid in a space that’s meant to feel safe. With his historic election in 2021, Senator Warnock helped usher in a gun safety majority in the Senate for the first time in six years.
He is a leader for gun safety in the Senate, supporting legislation that would close loopholes in our gun laws that allow individuals who have committed domestic abuse to access firearms, require background checks on all gun sales, and secure funding for community violence initiatives and gun violence research. In every position he’s held, Senator Warnock has carried his faith and his deep Georgia roots with him as he unites those around him to make our communities safer. With our gun safety majority on the line, it’s more important than ever that Georgians send Senator Warnock back to Washington DC for a full term. Giffords PAC is proud to endorse Reverend Raphael Warnock for the United States Senate.
