they used to at least pretend

 


There’s been more than 149 incidents of gunfire on school grounds this year, including 32 deaths and 94 injuries. The deadliest of these incidents took place in Oxford, Michigan, where a 15-year-old fired 30 rounds at his high school, killing four students and wounding seven others.

A few days later, GOP Reps. Thomas Massie and Lauren Boebert decided it was a good idea to post Christmas cards with their children all carrying guns. Republicans used to carry an ounce of sensitivity when national tragedies occured, but that’s gone out the window with Trump loyalists filling the ranks of the congressional GOP.

If you're sick of reading about tragedies in the news and sick of Republicans refusing to take action, chip in today so we can fight for an Assault Weapons Ban in America.

No student should fear for their life while attending school. That’s why I introduced the Assault Weapons Ban, which would prohibit the sale, transfer, manufacture, and importation of military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines.

This holiday season, I'm thinking of all families impacted by gun violence, and I am committed to honoring victims and survivors with action. Join me.
