New York Legislators for Gun Violence Prevention, a non-partisan coalition of State Senators and Assemblymembers.

[NYS Senator Brian Kavanagh 卡范納 @BrianKavanaghNY]

We're taking another big step to protect New Yorkers from gun-related deaths & injuries, by passing @LizKrueger & @AmyPaulin's bill to require safe storage of guns in homes where children might otherwise access them!

After 4 years advocating for Extreme Risk Protection Orders in NY, I’m proud that @NYGovCuomo signed our #ERPO #RedFlag bill!

Thanks @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie @JoAnneSimonBK52 @BradHoylman @NYAGV1 @MomsDemand @GiffordsCourage & the brave NYers whose tireless work got us here!

[State Legislators @ASLforGVP]

A thoughtful, compelling discussion at the @ASLforGVP Policy Summit on preventing gun violence by investing in approaches driven by communities & young people.

With @EricaInPhilly @BlackBrownGVP @mrmikedelarocha @OmariRAllen @JamiraBurley @cjrcoalition, moderated by @JonHoadley.

[State Legislators @ASLforGVP]

Research shows that guns flow from states with lax laws to those with tighter laws.

Ky Hunter of @Bradybuzz, @JoshuaMHorwitz @CSGV, @DavidChipman @GiffordsCourage explain the ins & outs of gun trafficking, as @PatriciaFahy109 moderates this important panel at @ASLforGVP Summit.

[State Legislators @ASLforGVP]

Learning a lot about suicide and guns from a terrific panel discussion at @ASLforGVP Policy Forum:

@AdelynAllchin of @CSGV

@AmyBarnhorst of @UCD_Psychiatry and @Consortium_RBFP

@ErinDunkerly of @AASuicidology and @Bradybuzz

Happy to be with NY gun violence prevention champions @WalterTMosley @JoAnneSimonBK52 and @PatriciaFahy109 at the @ASLforGVP Annual Policy Summit! cc: @NYAGV1

Dr. Barnhorst: the mentally ill are generally not more prone to be violent than those without mental illness. But the link between substance abuse and violence is much more clear. @ASLforGVP #utpol

[Brian S. King @KingForUtah]

Dr. Wintemute: for 25 years there has been a concerted effort to keep gun violence prevention research from occurring at the federal level. @ASLforGVP @utpol

[State Legislators @ASLforGVP]

Thank you, @RepBrianKing, for participating in our Policy Summit and for all the great things you're doing in Utah! https://t.co/GUa5UZt0rs

[State Legislators @ASLforGVP]

Drs. Wintemute & Kagawa from @UCDavisHealth’s Violence Prevention Research Program & Dr. @amybarnhorst of @UCD_Psychiatry emphasize the valuable partnerships between researchers & legislators facilitated by the nation’s first state funded firearm violence research center.

Kicking off the 5th annual American State Legislators for Gun Violence Prevention @ASLforGVP Policy Summit in Los Angeles!

Ready for some informative dialogue with gun violence prevention experts, practitioners, and state legislators from across the US!

[NYS Senator Brian Kavanagh 卡范納 @BrianKavanaghNY]

It's not too late to pass Extreme Risk Protection Orders—empowering families & police to prevent suicides & homicides.

All Dems and @PhilBoyleNY @KempHannon @SenatorLaValle @SenatorPhillips have said they support it.

Tell @NYSenate Republicans to allow a vote.

#PASSnyERPOnow!

[NYS Senator Brian Kavanagh 卡范納 @BrianKavanaghNY]

Two years ago 49 people died at Pulse Nightclub.

Today we must recommit to stopping gun violence: mass shootings, suicide, interpersonal violence.

In NY that means enacting Extreme Risk Protection Orders—backed by 35 of 63 Senators so far.

Session ends 6/20. We need a vote!

[NYS Senator Brian Kavanagh 卡范納 @BrianKavanaghNY]

Great meeting with @NYLGVP & special guest Rebecca Fischer of @NYAGV1, plus @GiffordsCourage @Everytown @CSGV.

We know community intervention & commonsense laws stop gun violence & we’re committed to taking further steps this year—like enacting extreme risk protection orders.

[NYS Senator Brian Kavanagh 卡范納 @BrianKavanaghNY]

.@shannonrwatts & @Shenee_Johnson of @MomsDemand, with @katiecouric, on their leadership & the state-by-state, community-by-community work to stop gun violence. "The story that doesn't get told us that we're winning."

An inspiring talk at @PreetBharara @cafedotcom Change Summit.

[NYS Senator Brian Kavanagh 卡范納 @BrianKavanaghNY]

Progress today preventing gun violence: @NYGovCuomo, Assembly, @NYSenDems & some Republicans agreed to tighten laws restricting domestic abusers' access to guns.

But with 900 gun-related deaths a year in NY, we still need extreme risk protection orders & other common sense laws.

[NYS Senator Brian Kavanagh 卡范納 @BrianKavanaghNY]

Key point: this is a setback for gun violence prevention in New York. But our growing #nyERPO coalition won't stop until we enact extreme risk protection orders and other common sense gun reforms.

Last night, I joined my @NYSenDems colleagues on the floor to make a push for stronger gun laws in the budget.

The @NYPost backs our push to enact extreme risk protection orders in the NYS budget!

They make a strong case, cite @AMarch4OurLives, and highlight the support of @ManhattanDA @QueensDABrown @BronxDAClark @StatenIslandDA & @BrooklynDA.

Honored to speak with @MomsDemand as they storm the NYS Capitol—and visit just about every legislator's office—to demand NY enact extreme risk protection orders!

PSA for anyone who doesn’t support #ERPO ➡️ these fearless moms aren’t backing down!
