Everytown for Gun Safety @everytown.org · 25/08/2026This is the future the gun lobby wants: Anyone can carry a gun anywhere with no questions asked, feeling emboldened to shoot people without fear of consequences.

Everytown for Gun Safety @everytown.org · 20/08/2026Teachers are trained to educate, not to be the first line of defense against an active shooter.

Everytown for Gun Safety @everytown.org · 13/08/2026In Todd Blanche’s first official week on the job, his DOJ has failed to fully defend one of our nation’s oldest and most foundational gun laws.

Everytown for Gun Safety @everytown.org · 06/08/2026Survivors of our nation’s deadliest mass shootings shouldn’t have to beg elected leaders to prevent future tragedies. We deserve communities free from gun violence — not lawmakers who play Russian roulette with American lives. 173

Everytown for Gun Safety @everytown.org · 01/08/20263D-printing technology allows almost anyone to print the key parts of a firearm at home with no questions asked. These deadly weapons, also known as ghost guns, have been used in shootings across the country. 11710

Everytown for Gun Safety @everytown.org · 26/07/2026The federal assault weapons ban that President Bill Clinton signed into law expired 22 years ago.
