I just went on the MeidasTouch podcast – one of the biggest progressive news sources online – to talk about the Tour to Save Democracy and our plan to DEFEAT vulnerable Republicans who stand in the way of our progress. I’m gonna give you the inside scoop and explain what inspired me to go on tour this summer to replace cowardly Republicans in battleground districts with strong Democrats. But if you can’t read through my full message, can I count on you to pitch in $15 to support the Tour to Save Democracy before you go? We still need to raise another $20,000 before we take off from Texas in 45 days – so each and every contribution makes a huge impact. >>

The Tour to Save Democracy is critical to building a better future for generations to come.

Here’s why:

Last year, I was in the Senate Gallery with a cohort of gun violence survivors and family members of kids who have been killed in shootings.

We watched Democrats bring three CRITICAL pieces of gun safety legislation – including a federal assault weapons ban – to the floor for a vote for the first time in YEARS.

Then, we watched gun-lobby-backed Republicans BLOCK all three bills.

And our country watched TWO mass shootings happen at the very same time this was unfolding in the Senate.

Republicans have proven they are incapable of taking action against gun violence.

That’s why the Tour to Save Democracy is stopping in 21 vulnerable Republican-held districts to elect gun safety Democrats in their place who WILL take action to protect our communities. But I need your help to ensure our tour has the resources to hit every stop and flip these seats blue. We need to raise $20,000 before the tour launches in 45 days to rally young voters across the country, elect a powerful Democratic Majority, and defeat Republicans who refuse to take action to end gun violence. If just 900 supporters chip in before our End of Month Deadline in 24 hours, we’ll make a HUGE dent in our budget deficit. Can you chip in $15 ASAP? Your donation will go to covering costs associated with our national bus tour, including paying bus drivers, securing parking permits, and refueling the bus. >>


Sam Schwartz on the MeidasTouch Podcast


I’ll tell you what I told MeidasTouch:

Republicans prove time and time again that they are UNABLE to do anything.

While Democrats prove consistently that they WILL take action.

The Biden Administration and Democrats have already:

→ Established the FIRST-EVER White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention.

→ Passed the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, the biggest gun safety bill in DECADES.

→ Signed DOZENS of executive orders to protect our communities from gun violence.

…And so much more.

But Trump BRAGGED about doing NOTHING to protect our communities from gun violence during his first term – when his inaction cost my cousin Alex his life.

And he even SWORE he would destroy all the progress our movement has made if he takes the White House back in November.

So, trust me when I say that we need to protect all this groundbreaking progress and continue our momentum – but that will only be possible with a gun safety Majority.

Please. Our Democrats need all the help they can get to defeat the gun lobby’s handpicked puppets in power – and we intend to show every cowardly Republican that Gen Z won’t stand for their deadly inaction for another second. Everything hinges on this historic election – so we need to flip as many vulnerable Republican seats blue as possible. That’s why I’m visiting 21 key swing districts to rally around gun safety Democrats with other Gen Z voters. But we can only make it to every stop if we have the funding to keep the bus on the road. If 900 grassroots gun safety champions pitch into the Tour to Save Democracy before our End of Month Deadline in 24 hours, we’ll have the padding to get our tour on the road and show Republicans what we’re made of. Can you rush $15 before midnight? Contributions will pay for tour necessities like food, parking permits, gas, and insurance. >>

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?
