5 years ago in El Paso, TX...

{NAME}: We hate to come to you like this. But tomorrow marks 5 years since the deadly massacre at a Walmart in El Paso, TX. [5 years]( since the shooter used an assault rifle to steal the lives of 23 innocents and wound 22 more. [5 years]( since the shooter posted a racist screed, quoting Donald Trump’s own disgusting, anti-immigrant rhetoric, before storming into the store. [And in the 5 years since this vile hate crime, Trump, Vance, and their Republicans:]( → [DOUBLED-DOWN]( on their racist, anti-immigrant rhetoric → [BLOCKED]( a vote in the Senate to ban assault weapons like the one used in El Paso → And [VOWED]( to enact the gun lobby’s dangerous, pro-gun agenda if they retake power. [We’re not going to let that happen, {NAME}.]( [We have a plan to elect a Gun Safety Trifecta by securing the House, Senate, and White House, for Kamala Harris and other gun safety Democrats. But we need your help to make our plan a reality. Right now, the Tour to Save Democracy is traveling across the country to connect young voters with gun safety Democrats who are running to UNSEAT the very Republicans who enable tragedies – like that in El Paso, TX, 5 years ago – with their deadly inaction and disgusting, hateful language. BAWN is donating $2,500 to each and every candidate endorsed by the Tour – but we’d like to give them all an additional $2,500 to help them win their competitive, tight elections. And we’re counting on your help to close the gap before the tour ends in 6 days. Can you pitch in $15 before midnight to support gun safety candidates like Michelle Vallejo, Angela Alsobrooks, and more? All contributions go directly to candidates endorsed by the Tour to Save Democracy. >>]( Here’s the truth, {NAME}: Kamala Harris warned us about the dangers of Trump’s vile and hateful rhetoric: [Kamala Harris quote: No...[Trump] didn't pull the trigger [in El Paso], but he's certainly been tweeting out the ammunition]( Kamala warned us about the devastation another Trump presidency would cause: [Kamala Harris quote: It's on us to recognize the threat [Trump] poses.]( [And now Kamala is warning us about the stakes in this election – and calling on all of us to step up before it’s too late:]( [Kamala Harris quote: We must fight for the freedom to live safe from gun violence. Because when we fight, we win.]( [We couldn’t agree more! That’s why we’re proud to support Sam Schwartz and the Tour to Save Democracy as they work TIRELESSLY to elect gun safety Democrats and defeat the cowardly gun-lobby-backed Republicans standing in the way of progress. If we want to live free from gun violence and mass shootings – like we deserve to – then we MUST elect a strong gun safety majority in Congress to back up Kamala Harris. BAWN has pledged to donate $2,500 to every single candidate endorsed by the Tour to Save Democracy to help them win their competitive races. But we still need to raise another $2,500 per candidate before the tour ends in 6 days to fully fund this expense and help them compete in their tight races. Will you chip in $15 ASAP? Each and every dollar goes to electing gun safety Democrats like Kamala Harris and stopping the likes of Trump, Vance, and their gun lobby cronies from ever taking power again. >>]( [Chip in $15 now >>]( [Chip in $25 now >>]( [Chip in $50 now >>]( [Chip in $100 now >>]( [Chip in another amount now >>]( Thank you, Team Ban Assault Weapons Now        ‚ ‚ BAWN is committed to replacing every cowardly and complacent lawmaker, regardless of party, that denies your right to live without fear of being shot. Legislators that support the deadly proliferation of guns, instead of common sense gun safety measures, are responsible for the carnage of gun violence -- and must be voted out. BAWN also lobbies legislators to support the assault weapon and large capacity magazine ban bills that will help put an end to the slaughter of innocent Americans. But they can’t do this alone. BAWN is relying on your support to kick every coward who refuses to protect our children and families OUT of office. Will you chip in right away?
