Very excited about this new resource for state & local leaders working to implement extreme risk laws.

[Everytown @Everytown]

Extreme Risk laws are one of the best tools to prevent gun violence before it happens. 21 states & DC have them, but implementation varies widely. We’ve partnered with @JHU_CGVS on a guide of best practices for implementing these life-saving laws. 🧵https://t.co/SQij6mDpZs

No one better than @NeeraTanden46 to lead the admin's domestic policy agenda. A huge win.

Biden to name Neera Tanden as his domestic policy adviser https://t.co/Q2DHk9lRTN

[Chelsea Parsons @ChelseaCParsons]

Very excited to be part of this crucial work.

[Everytown @Everytown]

Gun laws save lives, but only if they’re effectively implemented and enforced. That's why we're launching the Everytown Implementation Center; a first-of-its-kind effort to support state and local leaders in doing just that, starting with Red Flag laws. https://t.co/9nKWxuJSNQ

I'm thrilled to share that I've started a new position as Director of Implementation at Everytown for Gun Safety. Very excited to rejoin my friends in the movement in this new role!

Based on analysis of leaked data, we believe hundreds of people who signed up or expressed support for the Oath Keepers hold elected office or are members of law enforcement, first responders or military.

I LOVE THE TENNIS GO SERENA!!!

@dgibber123 THANK YOU

[Chelsea Parsons @ChelseaCParsons]

Deeply disturbing new analysis from @CAPAction. We should not allow this normalization of political violence.

[Defend Democracy Project @DemocracyNowUS]

NEW analysis from @CAPAction — At least 104 MAGA Republican ads this cycle display and feature firearms or weapons, blowtorches, and even “Tommy” gun auctions, with many including threats against opponents on both the left and right.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

This morning, I signed the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act into law—the most significant gun safety law in the last 30 years. The bill:

—Includes red-flag laws
—Closes the “boyfriend loophole”
—Requires young people ages 18 to 21 to undergo enhanced background checks

And more.

[ADL @ADL]

The #SCOTUS decision striking down a gun safety law in NY is deeply disturbing. Our research shows guns are violent extremists' weapon of choice, enabling horrific mass casualty attacks. Policymakers must be able to enact strong gun laws to protect our communities.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

🚨NEWS: We have a deal. Today a bipartisan group of 20 Senators (10 D and 10 R) is announcing a breakthrough agreement on gun violence - the first in 30 years - that will save lives.

I think you’ll be surprised at the scope of our framework.

1/ Here’s what it includes:

[ADL @ADL]

Extreme risk protection order laws provide an important tool to help prevent fatal shootings by violent extremists. We applaud the House passage of this legislation and urge the Senate to quickly do the same. https://t.co/tfJy8Cb7JG

[Chelsea Parsons @ChelseaCParsons]

PSA for folks who are new to these issues: please do not call them "red flag laws." That terminology taps into stigma about mental illness. Use the catchy acronym ERPO instead!

[Chelsea Parsons @ChelseaCParsons]

In case there was any doubt about whether House Rs would engage in today's debate about gun bills in good faith...

[Scott MacFarlane @MacFarlaneNews]

Rep Greg Steube (R-FL) shows his guns during House Judiciary Cmte hearing on gun control

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) says "I hope the gun isn't loaded"

Rep Steube responds, "I'm at my house. I can do whatever I want with my guns"

[Chelsea Parsons @ChelseaCParsons]

Reminder that the US is the only high income nation with this problem. It’s as if we might be doing something wrong…

[Mark Follman @markfollman]

Unreal how often we've had to update our mass shootings database in the past three weeks https://t.co/tsKzJGVv9K #Tulsa #Uvalde #Buffalo

[Violence Policy Center @VPCinfo]

While persons under age 18 cannot legally purchase a gun from a Federal Firearms License (FFL) holder, the firearms industry and gun lobby routinely target children and teens in their firearms marketing.
