Three years ago today, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act was signed into law, a step forward in the fight to #EndGunViolence. That progress is at risk because of a president who opposes gun safety.

One week ago, Melissa Hortman and her husband were taken from us in a horrific act of political violence. Political violence is never justified. Armed extremism is a threat to democracy. Honor Melissa by rejecting division—and choosing courage.

Rhode Island must now rise to meet this moment with the strongest possible assault weapons ban—no loopholes, no exceptions. Anything less is a betrayal of every family shattered by mass shootings and everyday gun violence. RICAGV can’t accept the weakest AWB in the country and neither can we.
