FLORIDA REPUBLICANS INCHES FROM PASSING PERMITLESS AND UNTRAINED CARRY BILL

SIGN THE PETITION: We need 15,000 signatures before midnight to show Florida Republicans that we fiercely reject their alarming attempt to put more deadly weapons on our streets. Florida already witnessed two of the deadliest mass shootings on record and experiences one gun death every 3 hours, yet DeSantis and his allies are RUSHING a Permitless and Untrained Carry Bill through the legislature -- which allows Floridians to carry a HIDDEN and LOADED gun in public with NO permit, NO safety training, and NO background check. We MUST act now and put the pressure on EVERY politician to stand up against dangerous Permitless Carry laws that make guns more readily available and put our communities in danger. Will you sign our emergency petition before midnight to show Florida Republicans and DeSantis the public OVERWHELMINGLY opposes Permitless and Untrained Carry laws? >>

Florida legislators, led by Ron DeSantis, are RAMMING a Permitless and Untrained Carry bill through the legislature -- and we have just ONE more chance to stop it from passing.

When Texas’ Permitless and Untrained Carry bill went into effect, mass shootings skyrocketed by 62%. We can’t let that happen in Florida, too.

We HAVE to show Florida Republicans the public strongly opposes Permitless and Untrained Carry IMMEDIATELY -- this is our LAST chance.

BEFORE MIDNIGHT: We launched an emergency petition opposing Permitless and Untrained Carry and we need 15,000 signatures before midnight to send Florida Republicans a message they can’t ignore. If we don’t get the necessary signatures, these legislators will use our failure to defend their deadly Permitless and Untrained Carry legislation. We CANNOT let that happen. Will you sign your name right away? We’re sending your signature straight to the desks of these legislators. >>

Here’s the deal:

Permitless and Untrained Carry allows individuals to carry loaded, concealed guns in public areas WITHOUT first going through a permitting process.

That means NO rigorous background check, NO fingerprinting, NO license, and NO training.

And states that pass a Permitless and Untrained Carry law suffered from a 22% increase in gun homicides for the three years after the law’s passage.

We’ve already seen over 100 mass shootings in the first months of 2023 alone.

But this is what Ron DeSantis and his allies in the Florida legislature want for Florida: Even more guns and more bloodshed.

We REFUSE to stand by and let them RUSH a dangerous Untrained and Permitless Carry bill into law while THOUSANDS of Floridians die from gun violence every year.

SIGN THE EMERGENCY PETITION: We’re counting on 15,000 signatures on our petition to show overwhelming public condemnation of Permitless and Untrained Carry and get the Florida legislature’s attention. This is our FINAL chance to stop this DANGEROUS bill before it goes to Florida’s Senate for a vote. Will you step up and add your name before midnight? >>

Thanks for your help,

Team Ban Assault Weapons NOW!

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?
