How many more gun deaths have to occur before you pass legislation to slow this trend? As a citizen, and constituent of Pennsylvania, I am asking that you take a firm stand and make a positive change by restricting access to guns and saving lives.
Why is this important?
As a public school teacher, I have seen the effect of gun violence on children; their fear and worry during lockdown drills, their frantic questions about what they should do if a shooter should come to our school. My 4th graders begged me to keep a baseball bat next to the door so I could hit him, should he enter our room. Is this what we want for our children?
