When a person is in crisis and considering harming themselves or others, family members and law enforcement are often the first people to see the warning signs. Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO) laws allow loved ones or law enforcement to intervene by petitioning a court for an order to temporarily prevent someone in crisis from accessing guns.
These laws are proven to prevent gun violence. Yet many states—as well as Congress—have not passed an Extreme Risk law.
We need to change that: Add your name to show you support these life-saving gun safety laws.
