Young Iowans spoke out this week against new Iowa gun laws that eliminate most permit requirements. The laws have drawn national attention as the country deals with new mass shootings
From yesterday’s press conference... We are disheartened by the unsafe gun and anti-voting legislation that was passed into law this session. We will continue to fight against anti-democratic legislation.
Shoutout to our Johnston High School chapter for volunteering at @MftH to celebrate the anniversary of March For Our Lives. We are so grateful for all of your work. 12,528 meals packed🧡
3 years ago today young people around our country gathered together to say #enoughisenough. While we can’t all be together physically, our minds and hearts are in the same place. We will end gun violence.
People need to stop saying that they can’t wait for things to go back to “normal”. You know what normal is in America??
Mass shootings, genocide, violence, and bigotry.
So don’t tell me you want to go back to normal. Tell me you want to go back to better.
THIS! Background checks are the floor, not the ceiling.
Let’s celebrate but there’s much more to do. @POTUS made a commitment to dedicate $1B to funding evidence-based community intervention programs. Check out our policy demands here. https://t.co/l5I7bUOojh
These bills are dangerous because they roll back lifesaving protections that we already have in place. Contact your legislators to voice your concerns. Go to https://t.co/WDlK3SvZjf
March For Our Lives Iowa condemns Senate Study Bill 1232 and House Study Bill 254. If either of these bills were to be voted and signed into law, Iowans wouldn’t NOT need a permit to purchase a firearm from a private citizen.
To all the people that hate us for trying to make the world a better place I hope you get the help you need because happiness is not gonna come from hate.
It comes from working hard, doing good and having great friends.
Hate all you want- we will prove you wrong.
