We shouldn’t wake up and fear taking the subway, going to school, work, walking around in our communities.
It’s going to be (and quite frankly, has to be) different this time.
Join us from June 7-10th, the days leading up to the March on June 11th, to lobby for lifesaving
legislation.
Some travel grants are available; prioritizing young people in key states until 4pm EST today!

We all need to come together and take a stand against gun violence. Let’s show our politicians that we have had enough! Please join our local march https://t.co/QeJkMb098n

Five years ago today the Charleston community tragically lost 9 lives. Hatred and racism run deep within this country, and the Mother Emanuel Church shooting is only one example of how Black liberation and gun violence prevention are intimately connected.
Coming up soon! REM!X, where we’ll be talking with artists across the country about how they use art and creativity to advocate for good. Join us tonight on the livestream, 7:30pm EST. RSVP here: https://t.co/OesoiZBLKx
Through my involvement in gun violence prevention advocacy, I have met many moms whose children have been senselessly killed. These moms have changed my life and are the most inspiring people I know. They give me strength to fight and I am grateful to them beyond words. 🌺🌷🌹💐
#HappyMothersDay to all the amazing people who play the role of a mom out there! Thank you for all that you do. We fight so every maternal figure can feel comfortable sending their child out into the world, without fear that their kid will be killed by senseless gun violence.
Our community has felt the realities of gun violence firsthand. I'll tackle this crisis head-on because no one in our society should have to live in fear of gun violence. I'm a proud @MomsDemand#GunSenseCandidate, standing shoulder to shoulder with @GiffordsCourage & @Brady_PAC
So you're bored in the house and in the house bored? We know the feeling.
Take direct action for peace from the couch 🛋️✌🏽

Despite early beliefs that #COVID19 wouldn't affect us personally, more and more young people are getting sick and testing positive. Please do everything you can to stay healthy and safe out there—for yourselves and to protect others! https://t.co/FqZ2HsjARC
6 people were shot at a party in Bakersfield last night, including one juvenile. #Gunviolence was a public health crisis long before #COVID19 and will continue to plague our communities long, after unless we support prevention and intervention strategies. https://t.co/Y811YWrglX
These are scary times, and that can be hard on your mental health. Many people are alone, and many have lost incomes, jobs, or loved ones. So now, more than ever, we have to look out for each other 💙
