The facts don’t lie: A concealed carry mandate WOULD make our communities less safe by allowing people with dangerous histories to carry concealed guns in states that wouldn’t otherwise let them.
Text GUT to 644-33 to tell your members of Congress to oppose a federal concealed carry mandate.

This holiday season, give the gift of facts: Using a gun for self-defense is not only rare, but it’s ineffective. A new @everytown.bsky.social report shows people who brandish or fire a gun in self-defense are less likely to escape and more likely to get hurt. Learn more: etwn.us/defensive_gun_use

Placing the burden on kids to keep themselves safe in the presence of guns is misguided and ineffective. The onus is on adults to ensure kids don’t gain access to guns in the first place. That starts with securing guns in homes and vehicles—stored unloaded, locked and separate from ammunition.
Some states now require public schools to teach kids about gun safety
Along with stop, drop and roll, some states are teaching students to 'Stop and don't touch that gun.'

When lawmakers refuse to take action on gun violence, we run for office and take their jobs.

True leadership means standing up for what’s right—even when the path forward isn’t easy. Speaker Pelosi has shown that courage time and again, taking on the gun lobby and helping pass the first major federal gun safety law in a generation. @pelosi.house.gov
