Today’s Action: Stop Guns in Schools — join the March for Our Lives tomorrow
The March for Our Lives is tomorrow, a unified uplifting of voices demanding the end of gun violence and mass shootings in our schools – and there are more than 825 events scheduled around the world.
In the month since the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida that killed 17, there have been at least 10 incidents of a live round fired inside a school resulting in death or injury, including this week in St. Mary’s County, Maryland where one student remains in critical condition.
Enough is enough – we are standing firm against the GOP lawmakers who have allowed the tragedy of gun violence to persist in the face of decades of public outcry.
The tide is turning in our country, with progressive voices overwhelming GOP negligence in unprecedented ways. A dozen states are considering “extreme risk” or “red flag” laws to remove guns from those who pose threats – Rhode Island has already passed it and Vermont is very close. And through peaceful boycott, Democratic voters have spurred at least a dozen major corporations to discontinue association with the NRA.
Tomorrow’s march is our next chance to show Republicans we’re done with their bloody games.
Join a March For Our Lives events tomorrow to tell GOP lawmakers we refuse to let them hold us hostage to their NRA overlords any longer. Show your solidarity with the students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas, Sandy Hook, Columbine, and thousands others who have been victimized by gun violence in schools.
PS — Please don’t forget to sign the petition demanding Trump fire the white supremacists in the White House, and join the vast majority of Americans demanding Congress protect Dreamers NOW!
