With Kash Patel leading both the ATF & FBI, he oversees background checks for gun buyers AND gun crime investigations. The severity of gun violence in this country is in his hands. @gabbygiffords.bsky.social wrote a letter to urge him to meet with survivors & leave partisanship behind him 👇

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

The VHSL is complying when 5+ of the EOs so far have been blocked in court, more are likely and VHSL’s own appeals process since 2014 specifically states trans student athletes allowed to compete have no competitive advantage. There are four trans student athletes out of 1.2M public school students.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of guns are trafficked from the U.S. to cartels due to lax enforcement. These same cartels flood fentanyl into American communities and drive violence in Mexico and Central America. To address overdose deaths and migration, we must stop the trafficking of guns.

A football game can't bring back the NOLA terror attack victims or change what happened. It's just a game. What it does do, on one of the world's biggest stages, is keep their memories alive and remind us of the survivors who are still hurting. #SuperBowlLIX

Y’all didn’t think we’d allow Kash Patel’s confirmation hearing to take place without Moms in the room? A Trump loyalist who is backed by gun extremist groups, Kash Patel as FBI director would be a clear and dangerous threat to the rule of law.

The president’s priority should be to build on the lifesaving progress made over the last four years, not boost profits for gun company CEOs. Any effort to repeal lifesaving measures will harm public safety and put our children at risk. That’s not what Americans voted for.
