Show your support for an assault weapons ban

House Democrats are working to ban assault weapons. [Hakeem Jeffries for the People] {NAME}, As elected officials, we have an obligation to address the gun violence epidemic that is killing Americans at an alarming rate. We have a sacred charge to step up and protect our children, families, and communities. The statistics and stories of gun violence should shock the conscience. So we are taking action: House Democrats are working to ban assault weapons designed to inflict maximum carnage out of the hands of criminals — and out of our communities. [Will you add your name right now to show your support for an assault weapons ban, so we can build grassroots strength and deliver change to protect our communities?]( [ADD YOUR NAME]( Conservatives will try to call this radical. But the simple truth is: It’s not. It does not ban handguns, or guns with hunting and sporting characteristics. But what this critical, life-saving legislation does is ban weapons of war. Weapons that are used to hunt human beings and inflict violence beyond recognition. These weapons of war have no place on our streets — not at parades, super markets, movie theaters, places of worship, or schools. [Don’t let Republicans get away with claiming there’s nothing we can do to solve the gun violence epidemic. Add your name next to mine if you agree we should pass an assault weapons ban and take decisive action to keep our communities safe.]( [ADD YOUR NAME]( Keep the faith, — Hakeem Jeffries for Congress 910 17th St. Suite 925 Washington, DC 20006 United States [www.hakeemjeffries.com]( | info@hakeemjeffries.com | [Privacy Policy]( Paid for by Jeffries for Congress This email was sent to {EMAIL}.
