We support the #PeacePlan because we need to stop sending prayers and thoughts and start taking action. Gun violence has gone on too long and enough is enough.

[March For Our Lives @AMarch4OurLives]

Retweet this tweet & tell us why you support the Peace Plan, using the hashtag: #PeacePlan

For example:

“I support the #PeacePlan because it advocates for automatic voter registration for every American when they turn 18”

YOUR TURN 👀‼️

On Indigenous People’s Day, we remember the 1890 Wounded Knee Massacre: the deadliest mass shooting in US history. As many as 300 Native men, women, & children were murdered for their culture by the US government.

We honor. We remember. We act, so it never happens again.

[Sunrise Movement 🌅 @sunrisemvmt]

Today @BernieSanders released his sweeping vision for a #GreenNewDeal.

It's the biggest, boldest, and most ambitious plan we've seen so far to take on the greed of the fossil fuel billionaires, & create millions of good jobs tackling the climate crisis.

[March For Our Lives @AMarch4OurLives]

We're floored by the huge response to the #PeacePlan 🙌

It’s clear that we can’t possibly overstate the appetite people have for real solutions to our nation’s gun violence epidemic.

When facing a crisis with consequences of life or death, we need action, not empty words.

[March For Our Lives @AMarch4OurLives]

To take on this crisis, we need to think big.
To take on corrupt powers that be, we have to be strategic.
To take on violence, we have to be pro-peace.
Introducing: A Peace Plan for a Safer America. Created by survivors, so you don’t have to be one.

[March For Our Lives @AMarch4OurLives]

Dear @BetoORourke, @EWarren, @AmyKlobuchar, @AndrewYang, @JulianCastro, @KamalaHarris, @JayInslee, @CoryBooker,

So far, you’ve said yes to our Oct. 2nd GVP forum in Nevada w/ @GiffordsCourage. Can you change your profile picture to this pic to help us paint the internet orange?

[March For Our Lives @AMarch4OurLives]

Chicago has mass shootings constantly, yet they rarely get nat’l coverage - & that isn’t by accident. Our activism isn’t honest if it isn’t addressing the trauma that Black & Brown communities endure daily.

Thank you GoodKidsMadCity for the work you do to serve your community.

[March For Our Lives Rhode Island @mfolri]

Its time to end gun violence and call out White Supremacy for what it is. Join the fight and #EndGunViolence

[March For Our Lives @AMarch4OurLives]

While we won’t see this covered nationally because our country ritually ignores the trauma in Black & Brown communities, Chicago suffered all weekend.

Some may be surprised by perpetual acts of gun violence after OH & TX - but many communities aren’t.

It has just now been confirmed that we have lost 20 beautiful lives due to gun violence today in El Paso, TX.

We are with all of those who have lost loved ones or have been affected by this tragedy, and continue to commit to action, solidarity, and love in the face of such evil.

[March For Our Lives @AMarch4OurLives]

It never ends.

We’re with you, El Paso.

[The Gun Violence Archive @GunDeaths]

JUST IN: As of today, the United States has witnessed 17,000+ gun injuries this year — an approximate average of 80 people shot each day.
