How gun safety has already been winning in 2024

In 2024, we've already made considerable progress this year in our tireless work to end gun violence. Donate today to support our life-saving work. [–]( Hi– It's hard to believe we're already about to round out the first 100 days of 2024. While time seems to be flying by, we've already made considerable progress this year in our tireless work to end gun violence. Already in 2024, we've accomplished a lot: - January — Early in the new year, longtime NRA President Wayne LaPierre stepped down in disgrace. Since our founding more than a decade ago, Everytown for Gun Safety has become a formidable counterweight to the NRA and the gun lobby. Even with Wayne LaPierre out of the picture, we're working harder than ever to take on the gun lobby's increasingly extreme and out-of-touch agenda. - February — The NRA lost a major lawsuit in New York State. This was only the latest in a line of legal and financial losses that has severely damaged the beleaguered organization's reputation. - March — In just the first three months of this year, we defeated more than 109 bad gun bills across 15 states. But this shouldn't come as a surprise, because we consistently defeat 90% of the gun lobby's state priority bills. And, right now, we can't afford to let up on the gas. We have big plans for the year ahead, and we're counting on grassroots donations from supporters like you to help us keep going strong. [Are you with us?

With new legislation still being debated in statehouses across the country, plus big plans for our grassroots operation in all 50 states and DC, there's plenty more work to be done. - Right now, MAGA Republicans are doubling down on extreme gun rhetoric as they continue to spread their "guns everywhere" agenda. At the local, state, and federal level they're pushing new, deadly bills that weaken life-saving gun laws and put the gun lobby's interests ahead of our own lives. - From the ashes of the NRA we are monitoring new gun groups gaining new influence in states across the country and in the halls of Congress. - With critical elections ahead of us this year, volunteers with Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action are already planning another massive grassroots activation leading up to November 5. It's this grassroots power that has helped a record number of Gun Sense Candidates win elections as of 2023. Just last fall, our volunteers helped state legislative candidates in Virginia hold the Senate and flip the House of Delegates to a Gun Sense Majority—a result that has proven critical to defending and strengthening the state's gun safety laws. There's no sugar-coating it: The gun lobby and their MAGA Republican allies are determined to claw back all of the progress we've made towards gun safety. And as their policies grow more extreme every year, so do their tactics. Everytown for Gun Safety, Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action are THE most important line of defense against right-wing gun extremists in Congress, state legislatures, and local governments—and we couldn't do it without grassroots donations from supporters like you across the country. [Together, we can continue our momentum towards a future free from gun violence: Donate today to support our life-saving work.]( What we are accomplishing together is incredible. We now count more than ten million supporters, moms, mayors, survivors, students, and everyday people across the country as part of our movement to end gun violence.
