fwd: note from Cory

{NAME}, I just read Cory Booker's email below on tackling gun violence in America. Make no mistake: these are bold ideas. [I'd like to know where you stand on Senator Booker's gun violence prevention platform. Can you take our quick survey here?]( Your response is critical to our team and we'd love your input today. Thanks so much, AJ Roshfeld, BradyPAC.org ----BEGIN FORWARDED MESSAGE---- FROM: Cory Booker Subject: I'm sick and tired of thoughts and prayers Friend, I am tired of going to funerals where parents are burying their children. I am sick of hearing only thoughts and prayers for the communities that have been shattered by gun violence. It is horrific that Americans have to live in fear of going to their houses of worship, schools, or movie theaters. And between mass shootings, the gunfire does not stop. Every single day in this country, nearly 100 Americans are killed with guns -- and hundreds more are shot and injured. We have to end the epidemic of gun violence and invest in communities that have been shattered by the trauma left in its wake. It’s time for bold action. When I am president, we will implement the most aggressive gun safety measures our country has ever seen. Here’s how we will do it: - Keep guns out of the wrong hands with gun licensing and universal background checks. - Bring real regulation and oversight to gun manufacturers. - End corporate legal immunity that prevents victims of gun violence from seeking justice. - Ban assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, and bump stocks. - Close the loopholes that allow domestic abusers and people on terrorist watch lists to get their hands on a gun. I need you to join me in this fight, friend. Add your name next to mine to say enough is enough and that we can’t just wait for progress. We’re going to tackle this epidemic head on -- together: In my community, kids are afraid of fireworks on the Fourth of July because they sound like gunshots. In communities across the country, from Newark to Newtown, from San Diego to Chicago, and everywhere in between, Americans are being killed and families are being torn apart. If we're not doing everything we can to stop dangerous people from buying guns, we're not doing nearly enough. We must do better. We need to do better.
