"Substantially reduced by 2040" sounds like a chickenshit goal. These are meta-solutions that don't address the root issue.
We need a major cultural shift to fix the problem.
1: Outlaw gov lobbying
2: Amend Constitution to repeal 2nd Amendment
3: Gun buyback
4: National gun registration & tracking

At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
