SIGN TO THANK PRESIDENT BIDEN

John, today marks a major victory for our movement to prevent gun violence. President Biden is in Monterey Park, CA – the site of January’s Lunar New Year mass shooting – signing an executive order that will require background checks on more gun sales and enact other protections to keep our communities safe. 

I’m simply ecstatic about this news. Thanks to President Biden’s leadership on this issue, we’ll face a lower risk of further tragedies like the one in Monterey Park. Here are some of the key parts of the executive order:

• Stronger rules for gun dealers so they follow through on requiring background checks on more of their gun sales.
• Better reporting of ballistics data from federal law enforcement – allowing the national clearinghouse to match shell casings to guns.
• A public report from the FTC analyzing how gun manufacturers market to minors (like the JR-15) and use military imagery to market to the public.
• Promote better and more secure firearms storage.

Please sign our letter thanking President Biden for taking action to address the gun violence epidemic. Let’s show him that Americans are supportive of his leadership on gun safety.

This historic moment comes on the heels of years of advocacy from countless gun safety survivors, our movement, and numerous Americans who are sick and tired of seeing the devastation that senseless gun violence has caused to their communities. We’ve sent a clear message that we don’t have to live in constant fear of mass shootings – a better way is possible.

I’m grateful to President Biden for taking a stand. We won’t back down until we see an end to senseless shootings like the one that killed my son in 2012.

For all of us who’ve been at the frontlines of this movement for years, the news today is a breath of fresh air. Sign our letter below thanking President Biden for protecting our communities.
