Trump hurled a hateful, disgusting slur at @drannieandrews.com in a desperate attempt to distract us from the issues that matter in this election. Annie handled the attack with dignity and grace. That contrast speaks for itself.

On December 2, the Supreme Court will hear oral argument in Viramontes v. Cook County to decide the constitutionality of state assault weapons bans. The bans have been upheld by the vast majority of federal courts, and the Supreme Court must follow suit. Our communities’ safety depends on it.

When an abuser has access to a gun, it makes it FIVE TIMES more likely that a woman will die at their hands. No one should ever have to experience the pain of losing a loved one to domestic violence.

Trump dismissed domestic violence and called it a “lesser” crime in the past. If that were the case, over 70 women wouldn't be dying every month at the hands of an abuser. But they are. Instead of emboldening abusers and undermining survivors, we need to invest in real solutions that keep us safe.
