We just finished our 7-day sit-in at the US Capitol.

And it’s never been more clear that it's not just the Republicans that are the problem – but also Democrats too.

They are NOT doing their job. They are holding up the Assault Weapons Ban.

I’ll tell you what I told CNN: It’s not enough to just co-sponsor a bill.

We need legitimate action. We deserve to get Senators on the record and that's going to require movement on the bill.

But these politicians are more worried about keeping their seats in power than saving our lives.

It’s shameful. It’s despicable. And we won’t stand for it.

We’re calling on Senate Democrats, like Schumer and Durbin, to stand with us just as we stood with them in their elections. I’m counting on 961 supporters to step up and help us send Schumer and Durbin a resounding message: Deliver us a vote on the Assault Weapons ban or we will fight tooth and nail to replace you with a lawmaker who will. Will you rush $15 before midnight to prove your state wants real change and overwhelmingly supports an Assault Weapons ban? >>

CNN: Mass Shooting Survivors Hold Sit-In Protest

It’s been five years since Parkland and nothing has changed.

An Assault Weapons Ban would have saved my cousin Alex’s life and the lives of countless others.

I will never stop fighting until the Federal Assault Weapons Ban is reinstated.

Because nothing is more painful than the heartbreak my family felt when Alex was taken by an AR-15 while sitting at his desk at school.

If you agree that Senate Democrats should stand with us and put the Assault Weapons ban up for a vote, will you chip in $15 right now? We need 961 gifts before midnight to fund our efforts to replace cowardly lawmakers with gun safety champions. Your support would mean the world to me. >>

Chip in $15 now >>

Chip in $25 now >>

Chip in $50 now >>

Chip in $100 now >>

Chip in another amount now >>

Thanks for your help,

BAWN is committed to replacing every cowardly and complacent lawmaker, regardless of party, that denies your right to live without fear of being shot. Legislators that support the deadly proliferation of guns, instead of common sense gun safety measures, are responsible for the carnage of gun violence -- and must be voted out.

BAWN also lobbies legislators to support the assault weapon and large capacity magazine ban bills that will help put an end to the slaughter of innocent Americans.

But they can’t do this alone. BAWN is relying on your support to kick every coward who refuses to protect our children and families OUT of office. Will you chip in right away?
