I can barely write this email, {NAME}.

I’m so heartbroken -- I can barely write this email, {NAME}. My 14-year-old nephew, Alex, was shot and killed in his classroom in Parkland, Florida. Along with 16 of his classmates and educators. The families of the victims and survivors stood up in unprecedented numbers to demand change so no one would ever have to feel the pain we did 6 years ago. [But it just happened again -- this time at Apalachee High School in Georgia.]( 2 more students have just been murdered in their school. 2 more educators have just been slaughtered trying to protect their students. When are legislators finally going to say enough is enough, stand up, and put a stop to the endless bloodshed caused by gun violence in our country? [We need to send every lawmaker in this country a resounding message: Ban assault weapons and protect our children, or we will fight tooth and nail to make sure you lose your seat in power. So I’m asking 500 supporters to step up and help us rush funds to gun safety champions who have the guts to stand up to the gun lobby and end gun violence once and for all. Will you chip in $15 now? The more you give, the more we can give to gun safety Democrats like Congressman Maxwell Frost and Senate candidate Colin Allred. >>]( I’m LIVID, {NAME}. Haven’t we seen enough bloodshed and carnage? Haven’t our children and loved ones suffered enough? When babies come home in body bags, it's time for us to take a stand and replace EVERY Republican legislator who allows mass shootings to continue ripping apart our communities. Republican officials couldn't care less if your baby's body is so unrecognizable by an AR-15 that they need a DNA sample to be identified. [Are you finally ready to take action?]( [Every single lawmaker that complacently accepts gun violence as the norm, is just as guilty as the criminal that pulls the trigger and MUST be kicked out of office. We need 500 supporters to stand with us before midnight to make sure we have the resources to defeat every lawmaker who stands idly by while our children are slaughtered. Can I count on you to rush $15? Your donation goes DIRECTLY to supporting gun safety Democrats running to UNSEAT every spineless, gun-lobby-backed Republican who enables these tragedies. >>]( [Chip in $15 now >>]( [Chip in $25 now >>]( [Chip in $50 now >>]( [Chip in $100 now >>]( [Chip in another amount now >>]( Thanks for standing with us, Gail Schwartz [Gail Schwartz]( Chair, Ban Assault Weapons NOW Heartbroken Aunt of Parkland shooting victim        ‚ ‚ 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?
