❗ Friends — to everybody who cares about our movement for gun safety, please don’t skip this important message.
The Trump administration is trying to change the rules to let the USPS deliver guns through the mail — with no background checks, licensing, or training — and we need you to help fight back.
Since 1927, federal law has prohibited the United States Postal Service from carrying or delivering handguns as mail — with exceptions for members of the military, law enforcement, or licensed gun manufacturers or dealers.
Donald Trump is trying to change that.
His Department of Justice recently issued a memorandum saying that they would no longer enforce this ban. Now, the USPS is proposing a change to their existing regulations.
If this rule goes into effect, it would mean people who shouldn’t have a gun will be able to go around state and federal laws and get a gun mailed to them.
This change also means that gun traffickers have a new way to move firearms through America’s communities.
At a time when gun violence is the #1 killer of kids and teenagers in our country…this rule would make us all less safe. We need to fight back.
You have helped us so much fighting back against extremist legislation and passing gun safety laws. Now, we need your support again to push back on this proposed rule.
