BREAKING NEWS: @CoryBooker WILL address ghost/unserialized/3-D printed firearms in his gun policy. He was 1st to announce a comprehensive gun safety policy. He met w us, listened to us, asked us questions about guns, climate, college costs & committed to make REAL change! @ASDem
Met with someone who MIGHT be able to end gun violence in our lifetimes - presidential hopeful Mayor Pete Buttigieg. In 2020, vote as if your lives depend on it. Because they do.
