I’ll be honest, folks: This won’t prevent every senseless act of gun violence. But it’s a reasonable step that will reduce the prevalence of high-capacity weapons in our communities -- and will undoubtedly save lives.
Wearing a seatbelt doesn’t prevent every death or injury from car crashes, but the vast majority of us wear seatbelts every single day -- because it’s a no-brainer if it’s in our power to prevent even one unnecessary death.
I’m fighting for common-sense solutions in the Senate, but I need to know if you’re with me in this fight.
We know that the NRA and other special interests are ready to attack this bill, so please add your name today to endorse my Assault Weapons Ban of 2023.
It’s going to take all of us coming together and standing up for change to defeat the NRA and reduce gun violence for the sake of our communities.
Last year, I was proud to help pass the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the first federal legislation in decades to begin to address the epidemic of gun violence.
But that was just a start -- we’ve got a lot more work ahead of us. That’s why I’m introducing this bill, and why I hope you’ll join me in pushing it forward.
Thanks for your support,
Tim Kaine
