Take Action and Tell Your Story for Comprehensive Gun Safety Reform

The new Congress will soon start working on House Bill 8 (H.B. 8) that mandates background checks on virtually all gun sales. This is fantastic! Moms, dads, grandparents and family members are beyond ready to help push forward this long-awaited, common-sense measure that enjoys 97% public support.

When it comes to gun safety, universal background checks is just the first slice of the pie. Help us tell Congress to pass background checks quickly, and then bake the rest of the pie, including banning military-style assault rifles with high capacity magazines!

To Members of Congress:

Recent polls show that some 97% of Americans support requiring background checks for all gun buyers. Meanwhile, the CDC recently reported that gun deaths in America are at a record high. This is an emergency, and there's no time to waste. Pass universal background checks (H.B. 8) now!

But universal background checks is just the first slice of the pie. Pass H.B. 8 immediately and then give us the whole pie: comprehensive gun policy reform, including banning military-style assault rifles!
