Thank you for standing up @bulletproofpride.bsky.social “This is dangerous. They say that it’s to protect children, but they’re trying to prevent people from getting care that actually lowers the rate of suicide for trans youth and trans people in general.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

POV: You've tweeted about trans kids more than you've passed bills. Let's make sure her final act is as successful as her legislative record, a flop. Call your Reps and demand they vote NO on H.R. 3492 and H.R. 498, MTG and Crenshaw's transphobic bills. Call (202) 224-3121.

The horrific tragedy at Brown University is the 389th mass shooting this year and the 230th gun incident on school grounds so far this year. This is not normal and we don't have to live this way. bradyunited.org @bradyunited.org

We offer our unwavering support to the Providence community and to the Brown University students, faculty, and staff who have been impacted by this tragedy.

Late Thursday afternoon, police rushed to Villanova University over a report of an active shooter — later determined to be a hoax — searching for someone who did not exist and at one point misidentifying a victim of a gunshot wound who had not been shot, according to police scanner recordings.

Yes, Villanova was a hoax. But students still ran for their lives, still barricaded their doors, still texted loved ones what they thought might be their last words. The students were well-trained in exactly what to do. This is what America forces on our kids. No other country lives like this.

Police are responding to reports of an active shooter on the campus of Villanova University. According to messages from the university’s alert system, students were instructed to lock and barricade doors and move to secure locations. Students moved in on Wednesday. apnews.com/article/vill...

According to Reuters, “The Trump administration has terminated more than half of all federal funding for gun violence prevention programs in the U.S., cutting $158 million in grants.” This comes less than 48 hours after the shootings in New York, Nevada, Georgia, among others. We are outraged.

“Your zip code should not determine the weight or value of your vote and it is disrespectful to constituents for those of you in power to use your constitutionally granted rights to launch attacks against your own constituents.” - @scoutcardillo.bsky.social testifying to the TX Legislature today

We are facing the most brazen attack on civil rights in generations. On July 17th, five years since the passing of Congressman John Lewis, we're mobilizing to make Good Trouble and carry John Lewis’ legacy forward. Join a #GoodTroubleLivesOn event in your community: goodtroubleliveson.org#attend

We just heard about the shooting in Greenwich Village in New York. We are offering our support to the community impacted tonight. A few blocks away from the Stonewall Inn & NYC Pride, everyone deserves to have a safe space without the fear of gun violence, especially in the LGBTQIA+ community.

When our rights are under attack, we fight back. Join us for our emergency rally outside of the Supreme Court tomorrow June 27th @ 11 am on the final day of the SCOTUS session, where decisions on LGBTQIA+ rights, voting rights, and immigrant rights will be released. We will see you there.

On college campuses, advancing autocracy threatens our right to speak & organize freely, threatens education & research funding, and our most vulnerable students. In this critical moment, students have the opportunity to play a central role in the anti-authoritarian movement. 1 of 2

Illinois would benefit greatly from a true safe storage law that requires all firearms to be securely locked up when not in use. SB8 is not that bill. SB8 would not even apply to the 70% of Illinois households that don't have minor children. #needsimprovement 😐

Coming Up Soon: June is National Gun Violence Awareness Month, beginning with National Gun Violence Awareness Day- also known as #WearOrange Day- on June 6, & continuing with #WearOrange Weekend, June 6-8, 2025 with actions from @everytown.bsky.social @bulletproofpride.bsky.social and more...

The Trump Administration’s secret settlement to permit the sale of Forced Reset Triggers will turn already deadly firearms into weapons of mass destruction. “Let it be clear. When this technology is used in a shooting, this administration will be directly responsible for the loss of life.”

Federal appeals court upholds ruling that blocks Florida’s drag ban #NOH8

MAGA Republicans would much rather spend their time obsessing over LGBTQIA+ people than addressing affordable housing, rising grocery prices, or gun violence in our communities.

ICYMI: last month we caught up with the Founder and Executive Director of @bulletproofpride.bsky.social, Scout Cardillo, to discuss the group’s intelligent and inspiring multi-lens approach to gun violence prevention activism.

2 people were killed in the Florida State University shooting yesterday: Robert Morales, 57 Tiru Chabba, 45 We offer our support to the families, communities, and campus who have been impacted by this tragedy.

(1,2) America is broken. My daughter Jaime was murdered in the Parkland school shooting. Many of her friends who were lucky enough to survive that shooting went on to attend FSU. Incredibly, some of them were just a part of their 2nd school shooting and some of were in the student union today.

If you know someone impacted by the #FSUshooting please get this toolkit to them ASAP. It contains extremely helpful & relevant info from @survivorsempowered.bsky.social and @giffords.org that I wish our community had access to after our #ParklandShooting. survivorsempowered.org/survivor-res...

We are aware of the current active shooter at Florida State University. We will update as soon as we can fact check information. If any students or community members need support, we are here for you 🧡

THE SHAME LIST: These 4 democrats voted yes on a national voter suppression bill that will disenfranchise millions of voters. Jared Golden (ME-2) Marie Perez (WA-3) Ed Case (HI-1) Henry Cuellar (TX-28) The fight to stop the SAVE Act now moves to the Senate.

DC you all know how to show up!!! It was incredible to sponsor the Hands Off protests today. Tag us in all of your photos and how you’re showing up for your communities 🫶🏼 Want to do this again? Dm us about our We Keep Us Safe Campaign on June 6th.

"Bulletproof Pride’s mission is to bring the voices of LGBTQIA+ youth and other marginalized communities to the table when addressing gun violence. We also understand that gun violence is intersectional and not one size fits all." @bulletproofpride.bsky.social @changetheref.bsky.social

BREAKING: Tomorrow, the Trump administration will take the first step to recklessly restore gun rights to people who can’t legally own firearms. An interim rule will give Attorney General Pam Bondi sole authority in the restoration process. This is flat out dangerous.

Good news! A federal judge has temporarily BLOCKED President Trump’s illegal executive order targeting trans youth and young adults!

Trans history is Black history, and you cannot have one without acknowledging the other. The National Park’s attempt at erasing Queer and Trans history is disgusting and we condemn the edits made to the Stonewall Memorial website.

send this to someone in your life who's too hot for a fascist future 🥵🥵🥵

Given that it's Black History Month, this seems a good time to remind folks that no matter what the National Park Service website says, we know it was trans women of color who launched the Stonewall uprising. We know our history, and we will not allow it to be erased.

Stonewall means “fight back.” 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ You cannot divide us, and you cannot erase queer and transgender people from our histories. Stonewall sparked the modern-day LGBTQ+ rights movement because trans women of color had had enough, pushed back, and spoke out for liberation.

📌 (1/2) Save the date: 6/6/25. We’ve mourned, we’ve cried, we’ve felt the fear and gravity of this moment, we’ve pulled all-nighters, we’ve scheduled extra therapy appointments, we’ve practiced self care, we’ve done what we can to recharge, but now it’s time to look forward. The time to act is now.

Yesterday, President Trump signed an executive order attacking health care for trans people under 19, yet another attack by the transphobic administration that hurts youth. #Protecttransyouth

"So what are y'all doing now that he's in the white house?" What we've been doing and will always do, fighting, protecting, and building our community. No matter whos in the white house there's work to do. If you're interested in fighting back follow @bulletproofpride.bsky.social

BREAKING: House Republicans have introduced a federal trans sports ban as part of the Congressional Rules Package. Everyone deserves access to sports, regardless of their gender identity, expression, or sexual orientation. Call your legislators and tell them to OPPOSE this ban.
