This is not a drill! After a 19-year-old used a LEGALLY purchased AR-15 and other assault rifles to steal the lives of 17 innocents and wound 18 others in a mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School 7 years ago, we worked TIRELESSLY to pass legislation to raise the age to buy weapons of war in Florida and ensure no such tragedy ever takes place again. But now, Ron DeSantis and gun-lobby-backed Republicans in Florida are DESTROYING our hard-won change by SLAMMING dangerous legislation that rolls back age requirements through the legislature. We’re devastated – but we’re not giving up. We have an unprecedented opportunity to RECLAIM power from gun-lobby-backed Republicans up and down the ballot and put a stop to their anti-gun-safety agenda, and we need your help to pull it off. If 649 grassroots gun safety champions say they’re in before midnight, we’ll be able to show gun-lobby-backed Republicans in Florida and around the country that we’re not backing down while they try to tear apart our progress. Can you chip in $15 in the next 12 hours? >>

We need you to read this!


FIRST:
A 19-year-old used LEGALLY purchased assault weapons – including an AR-15 – to slaughter 17 innocents and wound 18 more in 2018 in Parkland, FL.


THEN:
We worked day and night to pass legislation to raise the age to buy weapons of war in Florida, keep teenagers from purchasing AR-15s, and stop tragedies like the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas from happening ever again.


NOW:
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and gun-lobby-backed Republicans in the state are FORCING legislation through that totally rewinds our hard work, rearms teenagers, and puts more weapons of war on our streets.


We’re appalled. And we know that if Republicans in Florida are willing to play politics with our lives, nothing is stopping Republicans across the country from doing the very same unless we raise hell. That’s why we’re calling on 649 grassroots gun safety champions to say enough is enough before it’s too late and our progress is rolled back everywhere. The gun lobby and their cronies hope that we don’t have the strength to defend gun safety regulations against their attacks – so we have to prove them wrong. Will you rush $15 – or whatever you can spare – in the next 12 hours? >>

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?
