Gun violence should not be a part of daily life. Every time our country begins to heal from one avoidable mass shooting, we're faced with another horrific act of gun violence.
There's often a common thread in mass shootings that makes them even deadlier: the use of an assault weapon—a weapon designed to kill as many people as possible as quickly as possible.
Our children have a right not to be gunned down at school. We have a right to be in public without being shot. These tragedies don't have to be our norm.
We won't stand for inaction from our lawmakers any longer. Sign the petition demanding that our elected leaders pass an assault weapons ban.
