2012: Moms Demand Action formed 2013: We started advocating for better gun safety laws which led to good state laws 2018: We helped elect a House #GunSenseMajority 2019: Gun Sense Majority passed the first major gun safety bill through the House in 20 years, #HR8 2020: Just you wait

BREAKING: The House just passed #HR1112, the Enhanced Background Checks Act, to close the Charleston Loophole. Since 1998, the loophole has put over 60,000 guns in the hands of prohibited gun owners. We must now call on the Senate to pass this life saving legislation.

Kendric Price, a 32-year-old financial analyst, basketball coach & youth mentor, was found shot to death in Boston. In 2012, Kendric told the The Boston Globe, “I’m not saying I can change the world, but I’m planning to make a difference one child at a time.’’ buff.ly/2H26bSb

On today’s #InternatioalWomensDay I'm remembering the namesake of our high school, Marjory Stoneman Douglas, who was a: -Journalist -Civil Rights advocate -Environmentalist -Suffragette -Gun Violence prevention activist -Total Badass

In 2018, students effected by gun violence gathered on a living room floor & took to social media to mobilize millions worldwide to say “Never Again.” The internet was our weapon where a single hashtag can inspire a network of change makers & ground-shakers. #Web30 #ForTheWeb

No community on Earth should have to experience the intense loss that comes from gun violence. When hate tries to divide us, we will always respond with compassion & unity. Money raised is going to Christchurch for healing. Rise up against hate with us: launchgood.com/project/suppor…

Many thanks to the Parkland Basketball Board for never forgetting Alex Schachter, Joaquin Oliver and Luke Hoyer by establishing scholarships in their names. It was very special to have the families there to present the scholarships during halftime at the championship game.

1 year ago, we held the largest protest against gun violence in history. 1 year later, young people everywhere are still organizing to power the movement that is saving lives. We won’t live in fear because our current leadership is immoral. We can be the morally just leaders.

Can't believe it's been one year. Just know there is a lot more change to come.

“Recent shooting renews call for gun reform” The call hasn’t been renewed; we’ve been calling and calling and calling and calling and calling since Virginia Tech, Sandy Hook, and Stoneman Douglas. Some just decided to tune in. People shouldn’t have to beg to be protected.

The shooter who murdered my sweet little Daniel brought 10 30-round magazines with him into Sandy Hook Elementary. In 4 minutes, he shot 154 bullets, killing 20 children and 6 educators. Sign our petition demanding Congress limit the size of gun magazines now. -Mark

10 kids shot at a high school football game tonight in our community. Our trauma center received five GSW on Tuesday night. The fact that this is not on national news shows how routine this has become. WKRG AAST @ACSTrauma #PublicHealthCrisis wkrg.com/mobile-county/…
