U.S. Senators and Representatives from New Mexico please support S. 2373 and H.R. 4707. These two bills would appropriate 10 million dollars for the next five years to the Center for Disease Control to study firearm safety, gun violence prevention and gun violence as a health hazard.
Why is this important?
31,000 people die every year due to gun violence, 71,000 are injured and every 3 hours and 15 minutes a child is killed or injured by a gun. The gun lobby wants to ban all research by the CDC on the effects of gun violence in our country. Don't let them do it.
