Everytown for Gun Safety

Ohio needs a Red Flag Law

Red Flags laws can save lives by creating a way for family members and law enforcement to act before warning signs escalate into tragedies.

When a person is in crisis, loved ones and law enforcement are often the first to see signs that they pose a threat. Red Flag laws allow family members and law enforcement officers to seek a court order temporarily removing removing guns from dangerous situations.

Tell your lawmakers to support the passage of Red Flag legislation and protect our communities from gun violence.

Dear Lawmaker —

As your constituent I'm calling on you to support the passage of a Red Flag Law in Ohio.

Red Flags Laws can save lives by creating a way for family members and law enforcement to act before warning signs escalate into tragedies.

When a person is in crisis, loved ones and law enforcement are often the first to see signs that they pose a threat. Red Flag laws allow family members and law enforcement officers to seek a court order temporarily removing guns from dangerous situations. Six states have already enacted Red Flag laws including Florida, which enacted a Red Flag law with bipartisan support.

I hope you'll support efforts to pass a Red Flag law and other common sense gun policies.
