Tell Your Representatives and Senators to Ban Assault Weapons to Stop Political Violence

On September 15, 2024, the Secret Service stopped a gunman with an AK47 and a significant criminal record from assassinating Donald Trump on his golf course in West Palm Beach. On July 13, 2024, a 20-year-old gunman with a legally purchased AR15-style assault rifle attempted to assassinate Donald Trump at his campaign rally, resulting in Donald Trump sustaining an injury to his ear, the death of one spectator, Corey Comperatore, and critical injuries to two others. 

Assault weapons are a threat to all elected leaders, politicians, school children, church parishoners, movie and concert goers, shoppers, and other Americans. 

We cannot stand idly by as our nation continues to be torn apart by these acts of terror. The shooting at President Trump's rally was the 293rd mass shooting incident of 2024. It is a stark reminder of the dangers posed by assault weapons in the hands of civilians. These weapons of war have been used time and time again to inflict mass casualties in all types of public venues, and it is beyond time for Congress to act. 

Take a few minutes of your time to fill out this page to send emails your Representatives and Senators to urge them to ban assault weapons to stop mass shootings and political violence. The email has been written for you but you can modify your message as needed. 

Thank you for your support. 

Sincerely,

Newtown Action Alliance
