sick to our stomachs...

We’re sick to our stomachs… This weekend, a gunman with an AR-15-style rifle opened fire on an outlet mall in Allen, Texas -- slaughtering 8 people and wounding at least 7 more. We are absolutely heartbroken for all the families affected by this act of senseless violence. [There have been over 200 mass shootings in 2023 so far, {NAME}. But Republicans continue to insist guns aren’t the problem and block our efforts to ban assault weapons. That’s why we have to keep up our fight to get these weapons of war off our streets. So we are urgently asking for 670 gifts to help us fully fund our campaign to reinstate the federal assault weapons ban and replace every spineless gun-lobby backed lawmaker with a champion who will fight to protect our communities. Can you rush $15 before midnight to help? >>]( Republicans like Texas Governor Greg Abbott don't care whether we live or die. -- 8 people were slaughtered in Allen, Texas this Saturday -- 5 people were murdered in Cleveland, Texas last month -- 19 students and 2 teachers were stolen in Uvalde, Texas last year [All of these lives and countless more were stolen by a shooter with an assault weapon.]( When will enough be enough? When will our lawmakers finally take action? [We deserve better. We deserve to feel safe in our malls, banks, grocery stores, schools, places of worship, and everywhere in between. That’s why we’re fighting hard to ban assault weapons once and for all and end mass shootings for good. But we need help to keep our movement to defeat the likes of Greg Abbott going.

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.
