On October 1, 2017, a gunman opened fire from a hotel upon a crowd attending the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival on the Las Vegas Strip, killing 60 people and wounding over 800 more. We honor the victims with action. #Enough #EndGunViolence #HonorWithAction 💔

No matter our race, zipcode, or background, Wisconsinites know that our state is strongest when we build opportunities. This anti-equity amendment takes away our government’s tools to address disparities and ensure fair access to opportunity. #VoteNo before or on November 3. #YouCantDivideUs

2/3 of gun deaths in Wisconsin are suicides. These deaths are preventable. Extreme risk laws and secure storage can help prevent suicide, as can the suicide and crisis lifeline. If you or someone you love is struggling, the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7. Call or text 988. 🧡

Gun violence is a tragedy. Always. In the past two weeks we've seen it wreak havoc on elementary students, teens, and a college campus. Every day across our country, people are shot in events that barely make the news. Our hearts break for all those impacted. We will never stop working for change.

Gun violence doesn’t happen in a vacuum. When people are denied access to affordable healthcare, the risk of violence grows. Prevention starts with equity. Congress must not make this problem worse. #EndGunViolence #HealthEquity #RootCauses
