The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.
The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.
Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.
The list goes on...
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Watching Republicans refuse to applaud when Biden stated at his State of the Union that no billionaire should pay less in taxes than a school teacher, tells us everything that we need to know about the Republican Party.

BeSMART raises awareness that secure gun storage can save children’s lives.
There is no ‘debating’ a person who wants to force a 10 year-old into childbirth. There’s no discussion with a legislator who wants to fine-tune just how close a woman needs to be to death before she qualifies for an abortion. Tell lawmakers tomorrow that we will never go back.

28 January 1936 | A Dutch Jewish girl, Femmy Rika Keijzer, was born in Zwolle.
In October 1942 she was deported to #Auschwitz and, after selection, murdered in a gas chamber. Her parents - Semmie and Sophia - also perished in the camp.

It’s racist, xenophobic and discriminatory.
27 January 1933 | A German Jewish boy, Lutz Ludwig Grünstein, was born in Berlin.
He was deported to #Auschwitz from the #Theresienstad ghetto on 9 October 1944. He was murdered in a gas chamber after selection.
The republicans can’t seem to pay new teachers a basic cost of living salary ($46k) but they can find a quarter of a million dollars ($250,000) for members of Sarah’s Squad.
Elections have consequences.

It's time to act to stop gun violence. It's time for major reform, including an assault weapons ban. It's time to save lives.
