Today, the nation is grieving alongside the Lewiston community. Once again, a place of community has been turned into a massacre site. Even as we hold Lewiston in our hearts today, we cannot turn away from the truth that becomes more apparent with every mass shooting: Our leaders in Washington – and the corrupt gun lobby who they're beholden to – are directly responsible for this tragedy. [Please, we cannot be silent in a moment like this: Will you add your name to our live petition to call on Congress to finally BAN assault weapons and end this horrific bloodshed?]( [SIGN ON: Ban Assault Weapons]( Every year, so many of our communities are devastated by mass shootings – again and again and again. An entire generation of children have grown up living in fear that their school, their grocery store, their place of worship, their home will be next. The shooting in Maine is a horrific tragedy. But it is not an outlier. All of the worst mass killings have one thing in common: assault weapons. And until leaders in Washington finally stand up to the gun lobby and ban assault weapons, it will only be a matter of time until the next mass shooting leaves another community torn apart by these weapons of war. It's time to break this cycle and stop the violence. The majority of Americans believe that assault weapons have no place in bowling alleys, on our streets, in our communities or in the hands of civilians. If we raise our voices as one, we'll be an unstoppable force, capable of overcoming even the gun lobby's iron grip on Washington. [Today, we're asking 20,000 activists to take a stand with us: Please, add your name before 11:59 p.m. tonight to DEMAND that Washington finally listen to the American people and ban assault weapons. It is possible to end this violence and win a safer future – but we have to fight for it, {NAME}.]( [SIGN ON: Ban Assault Weapons]( Thank you for bravely raising your voice today. We hope that you and your loved ones are safe and together. With gratitude, Brady PAC We can't wait any longer for action on gun safety. Brady PAC is fighting for lifesaving legislation like universal background checks and an assault weapons ban, but we need your support.
