Chuck & I are heartbroken to hear about the shooting at Covenant School in Nashville.

My office is in contact with federal, state, & local officials, & we stand ready to assist.

Thank you to the first responders working on site. Please join us in prayer for those affected.

Heart shatteringly sad. These kids were looking forward to summer camps, pools, vacations. Tragedy doesn’t even come close to describe it. REMEMBER this when you go to the polls this year. Do you want politicians who push #firearmsafety measures, or the opposite? #Midterms2022

This is so cool! Stay tuned for @HannahHollon @drelizabethwolf and I’s research at #PAS2022 about helping kids stay #InjuryFree2022 which builds directly off of great research like this, and how trainees can help start the normalization of these conversations in our training!

[Wendy Pomerantz @WJPomerantzMD]

A study @CincyChildrens by @BKetabchi found that pediatricians agree it's the responsibility of the PCP to discuss firearm safety, but counseling occurs infrequently in the primary care setting due to a lack of time, education and resources.@InjuryFreeKids #InjuryFree2022

[AAP News @AAPNews]

A study looking at nearly two decades of data shows firearm-related injuries have surpassed motor vehicle collisions as the leading cause of death for U.S. youth ages 0-19 years, while also showing firearm violence disproportionately affects Black youth

Sending the PACS guy my new arrow design ideas because the current one is too basic let's see what he says

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

THEY DID IT! With today's bipartisan passage of a bill banning untraceable ghost guns, the Virginia Senate continues to lead on gun safety. @MomsDemand and @StudentsDemand are grateful for @AdamEbbin's leadership and hope the House will follow suit. #vagov
