Seattle became the fifth locality to file suit against Glock alleging their semi-automatic pistols can be easily converted into illegal, fully automatic machine guns using small, inexpensive devices known as “Glock switches.”

Against the will of the vast majority of Americans, Republicans in Congress are currently pushing for a federal Concealed Carry Mandate—a gun industry-backed bill that would gut state gun laws and let people carry hidden, loaded guns in states that wouldn’t otherwise let them. Text GUT to 644-33.

Our gun suicide crisis disproportionately impacts veterans, who are more likely to own guns than civilians. It is crucial that access to firearms be part of the conversation about veteran suicide in America. We can prevent gun suicides by talking about the deadly role that guns play.

VICTORY: The City of Chicago, represented by Everytown Law and co-counsel, will proceed to discovery in its case against Glock. Glock has been selling pistols that are especially easy to convert into illegal machine guns for decades. This is a major step forward in holding Glock accountable.

“This is a time to be loud, and to stay loud, and not stop until we fix this.” Thank you, @jimmykimmel.com, for always being an outspoken advocate against gun violence and using your platform to support a safer America for everyone.

Three police officers were shot and killed and two others were wounded while serving a warrant in York County, Pennsylvania. Our hearts are with the officers' families. Easy access to deadly weapons means even law enforcement officers are outgunned and put at greater risk. 6abc.com/post/serious...

@governorwalz.mn.gov is planning to call for a special session in Minnesota to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. It’s time for state lawmakers to prevent this from happening to more families and get it done—and for Congress to follow their lead. Text BAN to 644-33 to demand action.

Our nation has a gun suicide rate nearly 12 times that of other high income countries. This #SuicidePrevention Awareness Month, join us in spreading awareness about this preventable crisis and elevating survivor voices:

Last year, we surveyed students across the country on what freedom from gun violence means to them. These are just some of their responses.

“[Ending gun violence] starts with electing leaders who are not afraid to act. With supporting candidates—regardless of party—who put our kids before corporate profits. With holding lawmakers accountable when they choose lobbyists over lives.” - Josh Green, Governor of Hawai’i

We sat down with high school and college students to share stats on youth firearm suicide in the US. This is how they reacted. Note: The numbers featured in this video are based on CDC data from 2018-2022.

🧡 This Latinx Heritage Month, we honor the strength, resilience, and rich cultural legacy of Latinx communities across the country. 🧵

“41 states allow permitless open carry, and nearly 30 allow permitless concealed carry. This trajectory leads to a society where firearms could be everywhere, and where neither officers nor ordinary citizens can tell the difference between a law-abiding gun owner and the next shooter.”- Nick Suplina

As governor, @abigailspanberger.com will fight for gun safety legislation in Virginia that: ➡️ Requires secure firearm storage ➡️ Restricts the sale of high-capacity magazines ➡️ Cracks down on ghost guns She is the governor that Virginia needs!

The California Senate passed #AB1127 — a bill that will stop the future sale of pistols that can easily be converted into fully automatic weapons. The bill’s passage means CA is one step closer to making history as the first state to take on the gun industry’s role in the spread of DIY machine guns.

“Gun violence stole my peace. No student should ever have to walk through campus hoping it won’t be the site of the next mass shooting. Politicians on both sides of the aisle have the power and duty to stop this crisis.” - Timberlyn, Minnesota @studentsdemand.bsky.social leader

Our country’s gun safety laws are only as strong as the weakest link. Until Congress comes together to enact common-sense gun safety laws, the ranks of gun violence survivors will continue to grow. It’s past time for lawmakers to stop playing politics with our lives and stop this carnage.

“Only in America does an assassination share a split screen with a school shooting. What would shatter any other nation has become our daily broadcast.” - John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety

Evergreen High School student: “I texted my mom, friends, dad, everybody about it. I wanted to say I loved them in case something bad really did happen.” Lawmakers have failed our children with their inaction.

Conservative influencer Charlie Kirk has died from the injuries he sustained in a shooting at Utah Valley University today. Gun violence doesn’t care about ideology. No one is truly safe on our campuses, in our elementary or high schools— anywhere—in a country awash in easily accessible guns.

Communities across America are reeling from more horrific school shootings and threats of violence. During times like these, it’s natural to feel hopeless, but we simply cannot give up the fight. Text READY to 644-33 to volunteer with a Moms Demand Action chapter in your area.

Extremism fuels political violence. Easy access to guns makes it deadly.

Students Demand Action leaders at Clark Atlanta University were among the many students at HBCUs forced to seek shelter AS THEY WERE TABLING AT CLUB FAIR! HBCU students should be celebrating the start of a new school year and preparing for Homecoming, not fearing for their lives.

Yesterday, two students were shot and wounded by another student at Evergreen High School near Denver, Colorado. One remains in critical condition. We shouldn’t have to accept this carnage as normal.

AGAIN: Two students were shot and critically wounded by another teen at Evergreen High School in Evergreen, Colorado today. Gun violence is not inevitable. It is a choice by craven politicians who put the interests of the gun industry ahead of our children's lives.

BREAKING: Charlie Kirk was shot during an event he was hosting at Utah Valley University—sending hundreds of students into chaos. His condition remains unknown. We cannot accept armed political violence as normal or inevitable. No one should be forced to endure yet another shooting at school.

If we want to end gun violence in our communities, we need to elect candidates at every level of government who will put their constituents' safety above gun industry profits. Election Day is less than two months away. Take the pledge and commit to vote in this year’s elections.

More than 70. That’s how many women are shot and killed by an intimate partner every month. Shame on Trump for dismissing the impact intimate partner violence has had on millions of women and children in this country. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/08/u...

“... the school security industry is now worth as much as $4 billion, and it's projected to keep growing.” Hardening schools won’t stop gun violence—it just turns classrooms into fortresses. Real safety comes from common-sense gun laws that prevent violence before it enters our schools.

Trump: “If a man has a little fight with the wife they say, ‘this was a crime, see?’” Every month, more than 70 women are shot and killed by an intimate partner in the US. Easy access to guns fuels this crisis.

One person was shot and killed and at least five others were wounded when a gunman opened fire at a sports bar in Texas. The shooter remains at large. Yet another American community devastated by a senseless act of mass gun violence. We shouldn’t have to live, or die, like this.

Barb Smith is painfully aware that access to a gun in a time of crisis can be deadly. Her beloved brother, John, took his life with a gun when he was just 20 years old. 🧵 #SuicidePrevention

Right now, Republicans in Congress are pushing for a federal Concealed Carry Mandate—a gun industry-backed bill that would gut state gun laws and let people carry hidden, loaded guns in states that wouldn’t otherwise let them. We can’t let it pass: Text GUT to 644-33.

Sarah Carroll—a 20-year-old college student—was tragically shot and killed by her ex-boyfriend, who had stalked Sarah for months. Every month in the US, more than 70 women are shot and killed by an intimate partner. Easy access to guns fuels this crisis.

When you sabotage bipartisan, life-saving progress on gun safety, you’re not tough on crime—you’re the cause of it.

Listen to the experts: Even the threat of gun violence at school impacts our nation's kids.

Signs from today’s @studentsdemand.bsky.social National School Walkout, where students across the country walked out of class to demand state and federal lawmakers pass an assault weapons ban following the Annunciation Catholic School shooting.

@governorwalz.mn.gov has called for a special session to ban assault weapons in honor of the victims of the Annunciation Catholic School shooting. This is what leadership looks like. Now it’s time for lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to get it done.

Yesterday, Donald Trump suggested that arming teachers as a solution to gun violence in our schools is a concept that “a lot of people like.” Teachers disagree, and for good reason. There is no evidence that arming teachers prevents gun violence in our schools. 🧵

Adelita Grijalva is an unwavering gun sense champion who will put the safety of Arizonans ahead of the gun industry’s bottom line. We're proud to endorse Adelita in the Special Election for AZ’s 7th congressional district, and we’re eager to work with her in Congress to pass gun safety legislation.

Leah is right: Kids shouldn’t have to live in fear of assault weapons ravaging their schools and communities. That’s why she and our volunteers nationwide are fighting for an assault weapons ban—in Minnesota AND at the federal level—to protect every every community in every state.
