Tell the NRA: Remove board member who blamed pastor for shootingAn NRA board member is blaming the murdered pastor of Emanuel AME Church because he didn't allow concealed weapons in church. Charles L. Cotton complained that as a state senator, the Rev. Clementa Pinkney voted against concealed carry legislation, and claimed that "eight of his church members might be alive if he had expressly allowed members to carry handguns in church." Guns have no place in churches, and the National Rifle Association needs to immediately remove Charles L. Cotton from their board and apologize for his comments.95 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Michael Sherrard, Faithful America

Keep Guns Out of Texas Schools!I am a faculty member in a state school in Texas. My lectures hold up to 250 students. The thought of teaching a lecture in front of loaded guns frightens me. It should frighten parents, friends, and loved ones as well. School is challenging enough without this stress! On top of that, there is no requirement for a mental health screening to own a gun, and this bill could lead to dire consequences. Let your voice be heard. Protect our teachers and students. SAY NO to Texas Campus Carry!!! (This opinion reflects my own and not that of the campus I work for)313 of 400 SignaturesCreated by Miranda George

Stop the campus carry gun bill in the Nevada legislator: Assembly Bill 487I am a graduate student and military veteran in Nevada. There are campus police who are armed and are available to protect students. More guns on campus leads to more danger for all people involved. As a student, I don't want to have to worry about other students who may or may not be armed in what is otherwise a safe place. This bill is absurd and should be defeated. http://www.reviewjournal.com/leg-edu/campus-carry-gun-bill-could-be-sent-assembly-floor-soon48 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Daniel Haber

Say NO to guns on campusGun violence: It's personal. My stepfather was murdered--shot dead--and it was devastating to our family. Have you been personally affected by gun violence? I hope not, and let's keep it that way. Say NO to the proposed legislation that would allow guns on college campuses in Nevada.54 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Michael Ranieri

Tell the Delaware Legislature: People Subject to Restraining Orders Shouldn't Own GunsIf you can believe it, Delaware law doesn't prohibit someone who is subject to a restraining order from owning, possessing, or purchasing guns. A bill introduced in the Senate would close this loophole, protecting women and families from gun violence. But, our legislators need to hear from us that this important bill will save lives and must pass.52 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Maria Tchijov

Limit gun possession by abusers in South CarolinaThe House is considering a bill, already passed by the Senate, to prohibit anyone with a restraining order against them or anyone convicted of criminal domestic violence from ownership of a firearm for 5 to 10 years, depending on the severity of their crime. This is a necessary, common-sense step to protect domestic violence victims from further harm.48 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Frank Tedards
