Congress Must Act to Protect the Nation from the Plague of Gun Violence

The many headlines covering gun deaths in America are heartbreaking. Recently, we mourn the loss of students and teachers in Uvalde, Texas. Did you know that as of 2020, firearms are the leading cause of death in American children? We urge you to turn your grief and anger into action:
 
FIRST: The US House of Representatives has already passed HR 8, the Bipartisan Background Checks Act, which is the first step in transforming gun safety laws in our country. This legislation now sits before the US Senate. Call your SC Senators and ask them to vote for this legislation and to consider additional common sense laws to protect Americans from gun violence.
