Congress: Leave Executive Orders on Guns Alone
Our message to Republican lawmakers is this: Stop trying to undermine President Obama’s new executive actions to fight the epidemic of gun violence in America. #EndGunViolence
Why is this important?
As a lifelong gun owner, hunter, and also a victim of gun violence, these executive actions are much needed and don't restrict my rights at all. They make me feel better as a gun owner, in that we're helping keep guns from criminals and other dangerous people.
I began shooting guns and hunting as early back as I can remember. I was, until several years ago, an NRA member as well.
I agree with police chiefs supporting the president's executive actions on background checks and keeping guns from criminals and other dangerous people. These actions are simply modernizations of our existing gun laws.
But Republicans in Congress are vowing to use “every tool in the toolkit to stop him,” including legislative maneuvers and suing the White House.
Let’s stand together to defend these new executive actions to reduce gun violence.
