The PromiseOver 90% of Americans believe that there needs to be some legislation taken to reduce the number of mass shootings in this country. Yet nothing happens because of the strong hold the NRA has on our politicians. Let's stop the madness and start protecting our innocent children who so often are the targets of these military-style guns. Please take this promise with me: "I promise I will never vote for anyone who is taking contributions from the NRA." It's that simple. This is not a partisan issue. Unfortunately, Conservatives, Republicans, Independents, Democrats, and Liberals all take donations from the NRA and therefore refuse to represent the will of the people when it comes to common-sense gun laws. The 2nd Amendment is secure but the NRA uses it to promote fear for profit. It is in our power to send a message to Washington and cut the strings the NRA has on our government. Please sign, make an abiding promise and let's save lives.44 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jean Thompson

Change The 2nd AmendmentGun crime is out of control and the only way to get ahead of this is to change the 2nd Amendment. As it now stands, it is unconstitutional to require background checks and to demand mental health as a requirement to own a gun.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Amanda Campbell

Metal detectors are needed for the safety of our children and staff members.There have been several incidents this school year where students have brought deadly weapons into the middle and high schools in Hampton County. Even though those students were disciplined, we as parents believe that law enforcement can assist in tightening up on security to prevent weapons from entering the schools. We are asking that the Hampton School District One install walk-through metal detectors at the student entries as added security to help protect our children and staff members from senseless harm.76 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Sharonne Allen

Greg Abbott : protect against school shootersMy top priority is to encourage U.S. residents to petition for action to be taken on the topic of school shootings to protect against the growing number of school shooters nationwide and to demand something be done about it. All these politicians are too worried about losing there support groups rather than helping. Man up please and get this under control, please for the sake of our helpless children. Thank you.17 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Marshall

Gun Control. Today.There have been 18 school shootings since the start of 2018. Too many students and staff have been victimized due to the lack of preparation and prevention. Trump asks what he can do. He can take the guns out of the hands of the shooter. Stop the violence.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Teresa Izzo

Stop the NRA from buying our lawmakers.It is about time that we pull the rug out from under the NRA and other pro-gun groups, and pass gun laws that protect our society and our children. Thoughts and prayers are not cutting it anymore! Like all the 80% of Americans who are in favor of stricter gun control laws, I am sick over the latest shooting, and totally done with the "thoughts and prayers" messages from do-nothing legislators! I know many organizations are working hard to prevent the next shooting, but without action by Congress and states to actually--gasp!--regulate and reduce access to these weapons, nothing will change. The NRA has unprecedented access to our lawmakers, and it constantly holds their feet to the fire to prevent passage of any reasonable gun laws. I would like to see petitions signed by all those 80% of us that say "I pledge not to vote for any lawmaker at any level of government who takes a single penny from the NRA or other pro-gun lobby groups." If Move-On can promote such a petition and also publish the names of the lawmakers that do and don't take these contributions, perhaps they will finally vote the way we want them to!31 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kathleen Braico MD

The sale of all Automatic Weapons need to be placed on a National and Statewide Moratorium until ...There have been repeated incidents of shootings involving automated weapons. In some states like Florida, it is not only legal to buy and possess these weapons--but that also includes minors. It is time for both State and Federal Governments to put an immediate halt to all sales of automated weapons until a thorough and complete set of rules and regulations is established. These rules should include the banning of sale and ownership of any automated weapon - unless in connection with an appropriate security position or in the armed forces. The sale and ownership in any case of a minor should be prohibited. There should be a thorough system of vetting made mandatory for all points of gun sales. Any incidents of violence - or potential threat to violence - should be reported so that if found to be true, those who are considered either mentally unbalanced or a potential threat should be prohibited from the ownership of any gun - and those who are in contact with such individuals either at home or professionally and are licensed to carry any weapons should not be allowed to have any such weapons available in any form of access.64 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Michael Steiner

Ban Assault RiflesAmerica is the only country that allows the killing of innocent citizens by assault rifles. The time is now or never. We allowed 6-year-olds to be killed and did nothing. Lawmakers look out for their own pockets even when their own are attacked. "Time's Up"37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Mary Hooks
