Came for the news and stayed for the laughs. Want to do justice, love kindness, & walk humbly with God. Gun violence prevention movement ➡️ Text ACT to 644-33
Thank you @GovWhitmer for signing these lifesaving bills today and putting the safety of Michiganders first.
At this critical moment, we need lawmakers in every state to lead by example and treat our gun violence crisis with the urgency it demands. This is how it's done.

Our hearts break for another school impacted by a preventable shooting. We are the school shooting generation against our will. https://t.co/mzpIPkKpUq
For me, the People’s House has always been about welcoming everyone.
America, thank you for trusting me with this sacred place. I’ve loved opening the doors to the Oval Office wider than ever these past four years.
NEW: We just released our 2025 Gun Law Rankings and the data is clear—fewer people are killed with guns in states with stronger gun laws. In fact, states with the weakest gun safety laws have a gun violence rate 2.5 times higher than states with the strongest laws.
See how your state stacks up: https://t.co/2cZ4mFSYUZ
Former State Senator of this seat responded to our Super Bowl Parade shooting by calling for more shooters. There were already seven. The MO GOP vision for “safety” is SHOOTOUTS @MomsDemand#moleg
When the shooting starts how exactly should fellow passengers evade? When the transit operator asks to see the ccw, which is not required outside on the street, how exactly is that squabble going to go down? #moleg
Missouri Republicans just put forward a plan to "end the CORPORATE income tax" and "...allow lawmakers to IMPOSE SALES TAXES on previously untaxed services."
They want to raise taxes on YOU while eliminating taxes for millionaires & corporations. #moleg
Sadly, @SenRonJohnson failed to protect the children from Wisconsin. He is blocking Ethan’s Law that would require gun owners with children in their homes to lock up their guns. 76% of school shooters get their guns from their homes. #EndGunViolenceNOW
School shooting in Madison, WI. Police chief said
“Stop asking why schools don’t have bullet proof glass & metal detectors at all the doors. Ask why schools HAVE to. That’s the question that needs to be asked”
The entire comment section is targeted at liberals/Dems well guess what, Prosecutors show up to Jefferson City time and again asking MO GOP to stop gutting the laws leaving them not much to work with when arsenals and shootfirst is LEGAL but they CONTINUE to empty the LEO toolbox
Twelve years ago, the soul of Newtown, the soul of Connecticut, and the soul of the nation were pierced forever when 26 lives were stolen at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
We owe a debt of gratitude to the courageous survivors, families, first responders, and Connecticut officials who turned their deep grief into action. Their years of advocacy made the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act possible.
Every day in the U.S. roughly 120 people die by firearm more than half of which are suicide, 200 more are injured. Countless more are traumatized by bearing witness, losing someone one, & life changed. Every day.
University of Kansas senior Liesl Heil shares what it was like to be in the crowd when someone opened fire at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade this year.
“I will never go to an event like that ever again,” Liesl said. https://t.co/L36mhjt5N4
A man was senselessly shot and killed by another driver during a road rage incident in Orlando, Florida.
In 2022, someone was shot and injured or killed every 16 hours in a road rage incident—most frequently in states with weak gun safety laws.

Using a large portion of the legislative session on “trans issues” is the opposite of fiscal responsibility. What are we paying these guys to accomplish? Long debates on non-issues? #moleg
As of this morning, homicides are down 23.9% and nonfatal shootings are down 33.6% year-to-date. These reductions are on top of the roughly 20% drop in homicides we saw in 2023.
Missouri state rep Justin Sparks(R) voted against banning minors from open carrying firearms on public land without adult supervision. Every Republican (104) except for 1 voted this way. You don’t care about public safety w/ this vote on your record. @MomsDemand#MoLeg
