John— Yesterday we released our [ [link removed] ]Annual Gun Law Scorecard. We’ve been scoring and grading the states for more than 10 years, and even as states have passed hundreds of new laws over the period, we still find the same undeniable correlation. States that have strong gun laws have much lower gun death rates. We need to continue to pass strong gun laws to save lives, despite the NRA’s self-interested lies that gun laws don’t work. [ [link removed] ]Please make a donation today to fuel our lifesaving work. But strong laws can’t fully protect a state if its neighbors haven’t done their part. Gun trafficking from states with weak gun laws plays a major role in fueling violence in cities like Chicago and Baltimore—even though Illinois and Maryland have enacted strong laws. And we need to do more than pass laws. Gun violence has surged over the past two years—especially gun homicides, which disproportionately impact communities of color. We need to make sustained, long-term investments in proven community violence intervention programs to protect all Americans from gun violence.

Gun extremism isn’t what voters want, and it doesn’t make people safer.
Our [ [link removed] ]Annual Gun Law Scorecard shows what’s at stake—this is a life or
death issue for our country.

If you’re with us, please chip in to support our efforts to pass stronger
gun laws and fund community violence intervention programs in all 50
states. We can’t do this without you.

Gratefully,
Allison
