1/2 Just read yesterday's 9th Cir. opinion in US v. Kittson. The court rightly rejected the "absurd" defense that selling a machinegun to an undercover agent is a lawful transfer to the US. Crucially, the court also upheld the machinegun ban post-Bruen... #2A #StatutoryInterpretation #NinthCircuit

Giffords @giffords.org gives F grade for the Granite State in the organization's annual gun law scorecard. Tragic gun death rate in New Hampshire sadly is 36% higher than the northeast states (CT, MA, ME, NH, NJ, NY, PA, RI, VT) regional average. Controversial gun industry immunity costs lives.

Rep.-elect Long’s special election win sets the tone for the year ahead as @thedlcc.bsky.social works to shift the balance of power in states like Florida. We’ll carry this momentum into 2026 as we flip seats in red, blue, and battleground states across the country.

Courts are not just a frontline – they’re the center of the fight against authoritarian threats. We are working in the court of law, the court of public opinion, and the halls of government to ensure that when people win in court, those wins are enforced.

It's been 13 years since the Sandy Hook shooting. At Noon today the Northland @bradyunited.org chapter will ring the bell for victims of gun violence. We will be outside at the Minnesota Power public plaza at the corner of Lake Ave. and Superior St. Dress warmly. We will wave signs to be visible.

I will work everyday towards a country where children are safe in school and we address the epidemic of gun violence.

As we approach the 13th anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting, I attended the Nat’l Vigil for Victims of Gun Violence I refuse to accept school shootings & gun violence as the price of living in America. Gun injuries are the number one cause of death in children- This is not normal!

I joined state and local leaders today to discuss efforts to reduce gun violence. GIVE communities have seen shootings with injury drop 60 percent since 2021. It is progress, but not a finish line. Even one act of violence is too many, and we have more work ahead.

The decline in gun violence in our city is a great story we can all celebrate, but a related and important story is that arrests are also down compared to the previous decade, writes Arne Duncan.

Lincoln police identified the couple who died in an apparent murder-suicide last week. Sterling Jordan and Jennifer McCarther, both 51, were found dead from gunshot wounds at a home near South 14th and Sumner streets on Friday morning, police said.

After Sandy Hook, states introduced measures like #California’s Gun Violence Restraining Order. This essay reviews its statute, forms, & #caselaw on evidence, procedures, & safeguards. Read: spkl.io/63325AzpU9 Subscribe: spkl.io/63327AzpUc#California#caselaw#Lawsky

American International Group Inc. units are off the hook for a firearm retailer’s costs in suits alleging it fueled gun violence by marketing and selling “ghost guns,” in a major win for insurers seeking to avoid similar public nuisance litigation.

Dig into the series yourself to learn more about the differences between the gun industry’s public messaging and what it knows to be true. Because these discrepancies can be a matter of life and death.

In the final installment of his series, Spies looked at the industry’s efforts to expand online gun sales. An NSSF presentation showed how they’re leveraging behavior-inciting strategies to lure and hook customers.

In 2024, the NSSF also claimed that it distributed more than 800,000 gun suicide prevention brochures through that collaboration. The stat was presented as evidence of the initiative’s success. But those numbers were deceptive.

In 2016, the country’s leading suicide prevention organization teamed up with the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the gun industry’s trade group, to tackle firearm suicide. But the effort never came close to meeting its goal, and it secretly shut down early.

Four gun industry-funded reports, covering a period between 2011 and 2024, show that concealed carry is a pivotal driver of profits. But its research also shows that routine carrying makes even its customers feel less safe.

The series shows how the gun industry feeds the public information that’s at odds with what it knows to be true. After Parkland, the gun industry found that people with “positive feelings” about gun ownership were open to common reform arguments. The findings were not publicized.

Rogers’ story is only one part of Mike Spies’ groundbreaking series “The Secret Files of the Gun Industry,” published with @rollingstone. Spies’ series draws from a trove of industry market research, internal memos, depositions, and other records.

Ian Rogers, a car repair shop owner and gun rights enthusiast, was convinced he had to save America. In 2020, he initiated a series of domestic terrorism planning sessions. The gun industry’s sales tactics — playing up paranoia and glorifying combat — may have played a role in his radicalization.

What does it say about our country when our children, educators, and faith leaders are not safe to worship at their church? We stand with the Annunciation Catholic School parents in calling for action to end gun violence.
