Tonight, I'm announcing new efforts to reduce crime, keep kids, families, and communities safe, and enact commonsense measures to prevent gun violence. Wisconsinites sent us here to see big problems and fix them. We can do better than doing nothing.

Four years ago, 140 police officers were injured and 5 died after a MAGA mob sent by Donald Trump attacked the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to steal the election. As his second term approaches, we are fighting to defend our Democracy and freedoms against chaos and division.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

A 2-year-old toddler in Florida unintentionally shot and killed himself with a gun that was left out in his mother’s bedroom. Police recovered two unsecured guns from the home. Irresponsible gun ownership is stealing children’s lives before they’ve barely even begun.

Researchers found that Connecticut’s long-enacted firearm purchaser licensing laws were associated with a reduction in gun deaths, while the 2007 repeal of Missouri’s firearm licensing law was linked to an increase in gun deaths. Learn more from our new report: publichealth.jhu.edu/sites/defaul...

Anne Marie Hochhalter, a survivor of the 1999 Columbine High School massacre, died Sunday from the injuries she sustained during the attack. Her death underscores the stark reality that any shooting can result in a delayed death — a “nonfatal” shooting doesn't always retain that designation.

Trump just fired employees at the Department of Veterans Affairs’ suicide crisis line. An average of 18 veterans die by suicide in the US each day—most with firearms. You cannot claim to support our veterans and then cut life-saving personnel.

Trump’s expanded pardons for January 6th insurrectionists now include individuals facing gun charges unrelated to the riot at the capitol but uncovered during the investigation. This decision isn’t just about politics—it threatens public safety. 🧵⤵️

Trump’s decision to broaden pardons to Jan. 6th insurrectionists now facing gun charges unrelated to the riot at the capitol is dangerous and unacceptable. Armed violence threatens our democracy, excusing it sends a deadly message. We must hold those who use guns to intimidate and harm accountable.

Need some positive news this week? In the year since Michigan enacted its Extreme Risk law, courts issued 300 orders temporarily limiting gun access from people deemed to be a threat to themselves or others, allowing people in crisis the chance to seek help and preventing countless tragedies.
