Grounded in evidence and based on risk of violence, ERPOs (AKA red flag laws) help to prevent gun deaths and protect communities. Although laws vary from state to state, the process is similar for most petitioners. Learn more from our ERPOs factsheet: publichealth.jhu.edu/sites/default/…

This week, Governor John Carney will sign SB 2, which outlines a process for a permit to purchase a handgun. When fully implemented, this bill will reduce illegal gun trafficking in Delaware and reduce homicide and suicide by firearm. We can't wait to join advocates at the bill signing!

BREAKING: In a stunning announcement, Alyssa Griffin, a Trump appointee, announced she saw Donald Trump mull over an Executive Order that would remake every civil servant into a political appointee loyal only to Trump. Retweet so every American sees this.

Nice work that empirically tests the notion that gun free zones attract or facilitate mass shootings and the data indicate the opposite. Congratulations to this excellent team of researchers.

6/ His speech was perfect and deeply impactful. During a week when we could have lost all momentum, Biden's prime time address helped keep the attention on the issue and pressure on the negotiations. I'm not sure the historic 2022 gun bill would have passed without that speech.
