When combined, background checks on all gun sales and a strong Red Flag law can work to keep our loved ones safe, keep guns out of the hands of people who should not have them, and reduce gun violence in our communities. We need #SmarterGunLaws now.
Hey @MomsDemand volunteers! Let’s widen our spheres, support one another, and follow each other to reach a larger audience.

Briefly spoke to Rod Bockenfeld, Colorado State Representative about how I know we have shared goal to keep our families and loved ones safe. Thank you for speaking with me, and I will certainly be in touch. #ExpectUs#AdvocacyDay#coleg@MomsDemand@shannonrwatts@Everytown
I have been friends with Senator Brittany Pettersen since we were both little girls growing up across the street from each other. Thank you friend, for being a voice in this fight for #GunSense in Colorado! ❤️ Love you girl! @MomsDemand#AdvocacyDay#COleg#ExpectUs
In Colorado, after two of the worst mass shootings in our nation’s history, our legislators rose to the occasion & strengthened gun background checks.
Today the House joined Colorado, passing a clean bill to #UpdateBackgroundChecks nationwide.
The Senate must do the same.
I joined @MomsDemand after my sister was shot in Las Vegas. I’ve testified in #WALeg, spoked with members of Congress, marched for our lives - all with the hope that someday we’d see congress take action. So grateful the House passed #HR8 today! Your move, Senate. #endgunviolence
Thank you @RepJasonCrow for your commitment and hard work on the cause! This is a huge step forward in the fight to #EndGunViolence. We’re so glad to call you our congressman. ❤️
But we have much more to do! Call your senators and ask that they vote yes!

Summer 2018: I joined @MomsDemand and started advocating for better gun safety laws in Colorado.
Fall 2018: I helped elect a #GunSenseMajority in the House
2019: The #GunSenseMajority passed the first major gun safety bill through the House in 20 years, #HR8.
2020: Just you wait!
HAPPENING NOW: Our volunteers are on Capitol Hill to witness a historic House vote on the most significant piece of gun safety legislation in decades, the Bipartisan Background Checks Act, #HR8. #UpdateBackgroundChecks#EndGunViolence
