In the nearly 15 years since I was shot, I’ve learned how important it is to never give up hope.

The belief in a safer future keeps me going. I know it’s within our reach, but only if we all do our part. This #GivingTuesday, join me in the fight to end gun violence by supporting @giffords.org.

Four years ago, four students went to school and never came home. Seven more were injured and an entire community was left devastated.

My heart is with the victims, students, and teachers of Oxford. I’ll always fight to make sure no other family feels this pain.
Today marks four years since four students were killed and seven others were injured at Oxford High School in Michigan.

Michiganders demanded action and fought to pass historic gun safety laws. Our hearts are with the victims and survivors as we work to expand this progress.

This is horrific — a children’s birthday party on a holiday weekend became the scene of a mass shooting. My heart is with the families of those killed, the injured, and all the survivors.

We need our federal leaders to act. Kids shouldn’t fear for their lives at their own birthday parties.
HORRIFIC: A mass shooting at a child’s birthday party in Stockton, CA last night left 4 dead and 10 injured.

Our hearts go out to the families and loved ones whose lives were instantly changed during what should have been a joyful occasion.

Specialist Sarah Beckstrom deserved a long, full life. My heart is with her family, friends, and fellow servicemembers.

Gun violence steals too many futures. We must honor her by fighting for a safer country where all Americans are protected from gun violence.
We’re heartbroken to hear that Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, one of the National Guard members shot in DC on Tuesday, has died. She served her country with courage and dedication. She should still be here, celebrating Thanksgiving with her loved ones.

This Thanksgiving, I’m grateful for many things, including the Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona.

Earlier this week, I stopped by to meet with staff preparing meals for families in our community. Their work is making Southern Arizona a better place for all ♥️

I’m glad to see updated reports and praying for the two National Guard members who are in critical condition.

My heart is with their families as they go through this unthinkable pain.

My heart is with the National Guard members shot and killed near the White House today and their families who are left to grieve — the day before Thanksgiving.

These shootings are senseless and frequent. They impact everyone. We have to do more.

My favorite day of the year ♥️🚴🌵

After I got shot, I never could have imagined getting back on my bike and racing through my beautiful hometown. El Tour de Tucson will always hold a special place in my heart.

32 miles has nothing on us!

We need champions in Congress who will fight for the American people and take meaningful action to save lives. These candidates have the strength and clarity to do that and will help us build a safer future for all.

I’m proud to support them in their critical elections.
We’re proud to support this strong slate of gun safety candidates running to flip key battleground House districts next fall.

Each of these leaders has what it takes to win and help secure a gun safety majority that will put public safety ahead of politics.

My husband @captmarkkelly.bsky.social is a 25-year Navy combat pilot veteran. He served our country with strength, courage, and integrity.

The President called him a traitor and demanded he be executed. It is dangerous and wrong. Americans need to stand up and say so.
I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.

This Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honor the lives stolen from us in violent acts of hate and bigotry.

At least 27 trans people were killed this year according to @transequality.bsky.social, and many of them died by gun violence. America’s gun violence epidemic is fueling this crisis.

Three years ago today, a night of dancing turned tragic when a gunman opened fire at Club Q in a targeted attack against the LGBTQ+ community.

Five beautiful lives were stolen, more than 20 were injured, and an entire community was forever changed.
Today marks three years since five people were killed and 25 others were injured in a hate-fueled attack against the LGBTQ+ community at Club Q in Colorado.

Today and always, we honor the victims and survivors with action as we work to disarm hate and build a safer future for all.

Gun violence affects people everywhere.

I was glad to join @iowademocrats.bsky.social and Chair Rita Hart to honor her nephew Tucker and work to build a safer world for all of us.

18 years and forever to go!

Happy anniversary, @captmarkkelly.bsky.social. I love you more each day.
November 10, 2025 at 11:15 PM
It was an honor to speak at last night’s @iowademocrats.bsky.social’s Liberty & Justice celebration.

We’re at a crossroads. America needs all of us to speak out. It’s all at stake: safer communities, the health care families depend on, and our democracy. Iowa is energized and ready to get to work.

My friend @pelosi.house.gov has served our country with grit, courage, and integrity.

She stood with me after I was shot and she stood up for our country when the stakes were highest. Her leadership has been unmatched, and America is stronger because of her.

Gun safety wins elections. Last night’s overwhelming victories proved exactly that.

We’re proud to have supported so many fierce gun safety champions on the campaign trail who won important races last night. With their leadership, we know a safer future is possible.

What a huge victory for public safety in Virginia 👏👏👏

Congratulations to every gun safety champion who held and flipped important seats to regain this gun safety majority. Now it’s time to get to work and pass the laws we know save lives and fight crime.
Virginians have once again established a gun safety stronghold across the commonwealth! With the wins in the House of Delegates and the election of gun safety champion Governor-elect Spanberger, a safer future is finally within reach.

Red flag laws save lives. We’re glad to see this ballot measure pass tonight, two years after a shooter killed 18 people & injured 13 others in Lewiston.

Now, Mainers will have another tool to keep their loved ones who are a danger to themselves or others from accessing a gun in a time of crisis.

Thrilled to congratulate @mikiesherrill.bsky.social on her victory as New Jersey’s governor!

From serving her state to standing up for commonsense solutions to gun violence, Mikie’s leadership inspires hope. I can’t wait to see all she will do for the people of New Jersey. 💙
Congratulations to the next governor of New Jersey, @mikiesherrill.bsky.social, on your major victory!

Governor-elect Sherrill is a true public servant who has always fought for her community. We look forward to continuing to work with her to protect & expand NJ's lifesaving gun safety laws.

Congratulations to my friend @abigailspanberger.com on her historic victory as Virginia’s first female governor.

Abigail’s courage, integrity, and compassion have always inspired me. I know she’ll continue to lead with heart and fight for safer, stronger communities across Virginia.
Congrats Governor-elect @abigailspanberger.com on your decisive win! Virginians made it clear that they are sick & tired of gun safety bills being blocked by Governor Youngkin. They demanded change at the ballot box, & now will finally have a governor who puts public safety ahead of partisanship.

Happy Election Day from Loudon County, VA!

Only a few hours left to support my friend @abigailspanberger.com to be Virginia’s next governor and elect new champions like @johnmcauliff.bsky.social. Make your voice heard and vote!

@gabbygiffords.bsky.social and I know a thing or two about winning tough elections, and that’s what we have on our hands in Virginia. Nothing is guaranteed, so we need to do everything we can to run through the tape tomorrow. Thank you to everyone who is stepping up to get out the vote!
