CNN: Yeah, I think a lot of people watching this to hear you, a Parkland survivor, talk about AIPAC in the same breath as NRA, will be surprising.
HOGG: It shouldn’t be. Both are getting kids killed. I don't draw a line between whether it's kids in Parkland, kids on any street in America, or if it's kids in Palestine.
Max Miller needs to resign.
@NSSF a guy you donated to used one of your products to threaten to kill his wife. Are you going to ask for your money back or are you cool with that?
26-year-old Joan Sebastian Guerrero has been identified as the man fatally shot by ICE agents in Maine on Monday morning.
Sebastian was shot in front of his partner and their three-year-old daughter, who are now grieving a loss no family should ever have to bear.
This tragedy comes less than one week after another man was shot and killed by ICE agents in Houston, Texas. This violence is unacceptable. We demand accountability and justice for Sebastian’s family and the Maine community.
Today, Tamir Rice should be celebrating his 24th birthday with his friends and family. But police shot and killed him while he was playing in the park at only 12 years old.
Like far too many Black children in America, Tamir was robbed of his life before it even really began. We’ll always fight for the justice Tamir and his family deserved and to combat the racist systems that enabled his murder.
The mass shooting at Pulse in 2016 was the deadliest single act of violence against LGBTQ+ people in America.
A decade later, we explore what’s changed, what hasn’t, and why we must continue to work to protect queer lives from gun violence.

Far too often, we see acts of domestic violence turn even deadlier with easy access to firearms.
Domestic violence and America’s gun violence crisis go hand-in-hand—more than 4.5 million women in the U.S have been threatened with a gun by an abusive partner.
It’s time our leaders act with the urgency this crisis demands.
The Trump administration has scrapped all protections for a critically endangered whale species known as the Rice's whale, allowing oil and gas drilling in their natural habitat.
The regulatory meeting dooming the 50 remaining Rice's whales lasted just 15 minutes.
We've seen firsthand what happens when community violence intervention programs have the resources AND funding they need—and what happens when they don’t.
That's why we're calling on California to add $55 million to CalVIP’s budget to support work key to reducing violence in CA.
We’ve listened to the stories from communities across California—stories of resilience, healing, and lives changed because someone stepped in at the right moment. That’s the power of community violence intervention.
As part of the CalVIP Coalition, we’re pushing for $55 million in funding to make sure these programs don’t just survive, but continue to grow and save lives. #FundCalVIP
We’re proud to be a member of the CalVIP Coalition and to support the community violence intervention (CVI) work that is making California communities safer!
Today, we’re joining the call for $55 million in CalVIP funding to sustain this life-saving program. #FundCalVIP
...that last year, California likely achieved its lowest gun homicide rate of all time, driven by reductions in CalVIP-supported cities.

Through investments from the California Violence Prevention and Intervention Program (CalVIP), over 80 community-based organizations and cities across the state work to identify and intervene with individuals at the highest risk of engaging in violence. Provisional data shows...
Guns killing young people is a fact that should enrage all Americans.
After Uvalde, Ds & Rs passed a bill to save kids' lives from guns. And you're right, it's working. That's a good thing.
If only the gun lobby cared as much about kids' lives as it does about a talking point.
Yes, @BearingArmsCom actually published this headline. Gun extremists are getting more and more unhinged and disconnected.
Americans want their kids to come home safely from school. Period.
This is a disgrace. Immigration cops dragged a U.S. citizen from his car & jailed him for 3 days. They released him *without charges*—because video shows he did not, in fact, assault law enforcement. Vile for the federal government to lie about one of its own people like this.
When I was 11, I told myself I’d never go through a school shooting.
When I was 12, I told myself it would never happen again.
Now I’m freshly 20, and I’ve once more been proven wrong.
First Parkland, now Brown University. My safe haven away from my trauma.
