The undersigned congratulate our local Member of Congress for supporting measures to prevent gun violence and for co-sponsoring the bi-partisan U.S. House of Representatives bill, H.R. 1565, which provides for expanded background checks for the purchase of firearms and creates a commission to study the causes of mass violence in the U.S.
Why is this important?
Congratulate local congressional Members who are co-sponsoring H.R. 1565. This petition will be delivered on June 14, the six-month anniversary of the Newtown shootings, to the District Offices of Alan Lowenthal (Long Beach), Janice Hahn (San Pedro), Linda Sanchez (Cerritos) and Loretta Sanchez. (Garden Grove).
