23 years ago today, a white supremacist injured 5, including 4 youth at the North Valley Jewish Community Center in CA,+ later killed mailman Joseph Ileto.

This tragedy ignited the Million Mom March movement. To create a safer America, we must #DisarmHate

Survivors Loren Lieb, Mindy Finkelstein Reiger, Donna Finkelstein, and Josh Stepakoff turned their anger into action w/ @realdonnadees and millions of moms enraged by gun violence in America.

For decades, they have demanded action w/ @bradybuzz and I am so grateful for them.

The gun industry lacks transparency. That’s why we spent years fighting in court to secure federal gun store inspection reports — and the data is shocking.

Visit https://t.co/dlx1TrPNoh to now find citations for gun stores in your area and across the country.

Thank you Jon for all of the hard work you and the Brady Legal team do each and every day to help gun violence survivors and help end this epidemic. Learn more about @bradybuzz stellar legal team. https://t.co/lOVPfeGsR1

[Team ENOUGH @Team_Enough]

Since 1997, Jon Lowy has argued in courts across the country to take on the gun industry, reduce gun violence, and secure justice.

He has helped bring forward +250 lawsuits, winning +$30 million dollars in settlements and verdicts for victims and their families. #BradyAwards

[Brady | United Against Gun Violence @bradybuzz]

Our Chief Counsel Jon Lowy has been named among @lawdragon500's Leading Lawyers in America for the past 10 years.

But there is no higher praise than being called a "foot soldier in the fight for justice" by @EricHolder. #BradyAwards

Thanks to Jon Lowy's leadership, "we've proven over and over" that we can beat the NRA and the gun lobby in court, even when:

❌they're given special, unparalleled protections
❌they're aided by increasingly hostile courts

VIDEO: Many Americans first heard of "ghost guns" when @POTUS issued an executive order addressing their growing threat.

Just how accessible are these firearms? So accessible that 17-year-old @StephanAbrams of @Team_Enough bought them with a few clicks.

[Kris Brown | @KrisBrown.BradyUnited.org @KrisB_Brown]

The "Constitution" is trending, so here is my short history lesson on what the Second Amendment *really* means v. what the NRA + gun lobby want you to think it means.

Spoiler alert: One involves flooding America with guns & the other is what our Founding Fathers actually meant.

[Kris Brown | @KrisBrown.BradyUnited.org @KrisB_Brown]

OK, let's be clear, common-sense gun reforms are entirely consistent with the Second Amendment.

Just as Scalia said in the Heller decision, the 2A is like any other constitutional right in that it has sensible limitations based on public safety.

Nearly 30 years ago, @JoeBiden made history by joining gun violence survivor Jim Brady (@bradybuzz) in shepherding the Brady Bill through Congress.

That was the last time we made major progress on gun reform. That is, until today.

How it started How it's going

[Team ENOUGH @Team_Enough]

👏👏👏Thank you for continuing to be a gun violence prevention champion, @POTUS!👏👏👏

Join us in thanking him! 🥳

[Brady | United Against Gun Violence @bradybuzz]

Today, under President Biden's leadership, our country took historic steps to prevent gun violence and save lives.

Join us in thanking @POTUS now: https://t.co/Vw5DUJMyE2

[Brady SFV @Brady_SFV]

Thank you @POTUS for tackling the untraceable ghost gun crisis in your initial steps to reduce gun violence. In 2019 alone, law enforcement agencies recovered ~10,000 ghost guns, and they've been used in at least 3 mass shootings in California. @bradybuzz

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

I want all those who have lost a loved one to gun violence to know: @POTUS and I will never, ever give up on this fight.

[Katy Tur Reports @KatyOnMSNBC]

. @bradybuzz President @KrisB_Brown: "A huge number of guns that are flooding our communities come from a relatively small number of dealers. We need help pinpointing those and stopping the flow of sales."
