Commissioner Jody-
Halloween is still a few days away, but you know what's truly terrifying?
The gun industry's push for a federal Concealed Carry Mandate—an extreme bill that would force each state to allow people from other states, including people with dangerous histories, to carry hidden, loaded guns in public—even in states that wouldn't otherwise let them.
That means someone with a history of violence like a convicted stalker—or someone with no training whatsoever—could concealed carry in a state that would have blocked them from carrying. More guns in more hands in more places is the gun industry's dream, but a nightmare for public safety.
And while the American people are desperately waiting for the government shutdown to end, the gun industry's allies in Congress are already making plans to make this terrifying bill their top priority.
We're not afraid to fight back against the gun industry's dangerous agenda in Congress, or push back at the polls by electing Gun Sense Candidates who will stand up to the gun industry. Commissioner Jody, if you want to protect our communities and keep children safe from gun violence, donate now to Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund to support our work to end gun violence and fuel our advocacy work.
Your gift will help us mobilize our base of nearly 11 million supporters to pressure our lawmakers to strengthen our gun safety laws, help Gun Sense Candidates win elections, and secure a future free of gun violence.
The Concealed Carry Mandate is a public safety nightmare but it's the gun lobby's dream bill—even though it would trample over states' rights, gut strong gun safety laws, and make it easier for abusers, criminals, and untrained individuals to carry hidden guns in our communities.
But here's a treat for the gun industry's trick: We've defeated their guns everywhere bills before, including a federal concealed carry mandate back in 2018. Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action volunteers worked hard to stop it in its tracks, but to keep our winning streak alive and to secure another major victory, we need the grassroots power—and resources—to fight back.
Commissioner Jody, chip in today and help Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund keep children safe, work toward a future free of gun violence, and protect communities from the gun industry's scariest agenda yet.
Thank you for your commitment to securing a future free of gun violence.
–Everytown for Gun Safety
