This law bans the sale and possession of rapid-fire devices like Glock switches—small attachments that can quickly turn a handgun into a machine gun. It also empowers local governments to prohibit firearms in certain municipal buildings, helping ensure that public spaces remain safe for everyone.

It's clear that Trump's cuts to the NIH are taking us backward.
He’s cut over 100 grants for cancer research and many more for infectious diseases.
It’s clear he doesn’t care about your health or our ability to solve big problems.

The government should not be a part of a cover up for the rich and powerful.
The House and Senate must vote to release ALL the Epstein files without any amendments or loopholes.

“Under Trump's second presidency, the DOJ announced they were closing the investigation into Epstein's coconspirators and then transferred Ghislaine Maxwell into a prison camp, where it's well documented that she is receiving special treatment.”
