To: The Texas State House, The Texas State Senate, and Governor Greg Abbott
Divest from the Gun Industry
Divest our state's pension fund from companies that profit from the sale or manufacture of guns.
Why is this important?
One year ago yesterday 20 children and 6 adults were killed due to gun violence. The gun manufacturing industry has continuously campaigned to profit off of gun violence with lies about the fear of a false national gun registry (The Manchin-Toomey Background Check Bill will sentence anyone to 15 years in prison for an attempt at a national gun registry). With 26 school shootings since Sandy Hook, 33 people dying from gun violence every single day, and 64% of the murders in Texas due gun violence. It's past time that Texans Stand Up and tell our representatives we want to Divest From Guns. #SaveLives #PeopleComeFirst
