THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE 22 people have reportedly been killed and over 50 wounded tonight in shootings in Lewiston, Maine—a town of 37,000 people. Our country is being held hostage by a gun lobby that makes record profits off record gun sales & gun violence. We need action on gun

Another deeply mentally ill man, armed with a military semi-automatic rifle, commits mass murder. This isn’t hard. a. Keep weapons away from potentially dangerous people. b. Don’t let anyone have an assault weapon. Mass shootings decline. Nobody’s 2A rights are harmed.

While domestic violence protective orders vary across states, in general, “People aren't just getting them for nothing. Judges aren't just handing them out like candy,” says Kelly Roskam, our director of law & policy at the Center in TIME: time.com/6332044/suprem…

Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar in #Rahimi: “We don’t have to tolerate the risks of armed domestic violence” 8 in 10 Americans agree: people who commit domestic abuse shouldn’t have guns. Will #SCOTUS heed common sense? #DisarmDomesticViolence

Minimum age restrictions can save lives. We know brain development plays a role in decision making and impulsivity which can be the difference between life and death. Policies like these can meaningfully reduce overall firearm mortality.
