Guns and Justice
Gun violence is not just a crisis, it is a public health emergency that’s tearing apart families and devastating communities across America, especially Black and brown communities. Americans should never live in fear of falling victim to gun violence. Parents should not worry that their children might not come home from school because of a school shooting.
As a member of the Gun Violence Prevention Taskforce, I am committed to finding a solution to end gun violence in the United States. I stand with the majority of Americans who are calling for common-sense gun reform. I have consistently supported legislation that works towards implementing universal background checks, banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, closing loopholes, and investing in community-based violence intervention programs that are proven to save lives.
Through my work in Congress, I will remain committed to the fight to end gun violence and support responsible gun ownership.
