We're sick of the inaction of our lawmakers. And though we may be sad, or angry--we will fight. And if lawmakers won't change our gun laws, we'll vote them out. #HonorWithAction@forourlivescomo
The NRA has successfully prevented gun violence research for the past 20 years at the CDC.
As a result of the highest youth voter turnout in the past 100 years congress now cares about young people.
House panel allots $50M to study gun violence https://t.co/ZZSJKSIwMl
Active shooter drills taught us how to:
❌Crouch under tables to hide.
❌Look for escape paths when we enter a new room.
❌Run for our lives as soon as we hear gunshots.
This should not be normal. This is not a solution to the violence. #GenerationLockdown
ICYMI: A substitute teacher is facing charges after a gun he was carrying in his pocket discharged in an Alabama first grade classroom.

Great progress has been made in just weeks by New Zealand and @jacindaardern by banning most semi-automatic weapons! We should lead by example and follow suit! Who else thinks so? #marchforourlives#endgunviolence
Good morning Twitter friends! Today is another day that you get to fight for #GunSense! Make it count 😊 “The people who were trying to make this world worse are not taking the day off. Why should I?”―Bob Marley #RejectTheNRA#ThrowThemOut#NoNRAMoney#NoRA
Sandy Hook happened 6 years ago and we can’t even get the Senate to hold a vote on universal background checks w/ #HR8.
Christchurch happened, and within days New Zealand acted to get weapons of war out of the consumer market.
This is what leadership looks like ⬇️

Unless we elect a President that will stand up to the gun lobby, nothing will change.
As President, I will fight for universal background checks, closing the Charleston loophole, and an assault weapons ban.
Don’t believe the NRA’s hype: Background checks save lives.
Read more myths and facts about the Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2019, or H.R. 8. Then, text CHECKS to 644-33 to tell your congressperson to #UpdateBackgroundChecks by voting YES to #HR8. https://t.co/i460Hdnxld
🚨🚨Breaking News — #HR8, my bipartisan bill to expand background checks will come to the floor for a vote next week! Finally we take bipartisan action to help prevent gun violence. We break the cycle of stagnation and finally hold a vote. We make history.
Twelve people were shot in Baltimore on Thursday.
Twelve.
In just one day.
Five of them are dead.
That’s more people than were killed by guns in Japan in all of 2017.
It’s long past time for us to do something about gun violence in America.
