Today, and every day, we say his name: George Floyd. May he rest in power.
Our Statement on Derek Chauvin Trial Verdict:
Derek Chauvin Murder Conviction is Welcomed, But It Alone Is Not Justice
ALT March For Our Lives Statement on Derek Chauvin Trial Verdict Derek Chauvin Murder Conviction is Welcomed, But It Alone Is Not Justice Parkland, FL — “We feel a brief sense of a relief today knowing that Derek Chauvin is being held to account for the wrenching murder of George Floyd. But we’re also clear-eyed that dismantling the system of white supremacy that allowed his life to be stolen in the first place doesn’t end here. The whole damn system is guilty. This conviction doesn’t bring back George Floyd’s life, nor does it paper over the hurt experienced by his loved ones and by a nation that grieves for him. This verdict is welcomed, but it is not justice. Justice would be rebuilding this entire system to ensure that what happened to George Floyd and countless others never happens again. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of acquittals for this one guilty verdict. For Black lives to truly matter, we must dismantle the systems that allow for Black life to be taken away so careles

AG @JoshShapiroPA has been one of the leading Attorney Generals taking on the NRA & Trump-administration's dangerous policies & 2A-interpretation.

•Trump refused to condemn white supremacy and told proud boys to “stand by.”
•Trump said “bad things happen” in Philly, hinting at ballot irregularity conspiracies, yet failed to mention our gun violence crisis or the Eagles.
He is not worthy of our vote.

4.6 million children live in homes with access to an unlocked or unsupervised gun.
Doctors can prevent tragedies before they occur by talking to patients about gun safety. We partnered with @Drsforamerica to create tools to teach medical professionals how. #ThisIsOurLane

Rep. John Lewis spent his whole life fighting for a better America. He may be gone, but his legacy— through the lives of those he inspired— will live on forever. #JohnLewis taught us what it means to make #GoodTrouble and we are eternally grateful for that lesson.
#RIPJohnLewis

Americans kill each other with guns at 25x the rate of other high-income countries. We also know a gun in the home increases the risk of suicide and unintentional shootings.
Study after study tells us that guns don't make us safer. When will we listen?

BREAKING: We and @GiffordsCourage, with the support of 60+ PA elected officials & community groups, filed a “friend of the court” brief with the PA Supreme Court supporting @thecityofhbg’s efforts to fight gun groups suing cities that have passed gun safety laws.#GunLawsSaveLives

UNANIMOUS! After a long wait, the #PaHouse unanimously approved police reforms today, aimed to improve training and accountability of officers. This is a major first step, and we still have a long way to go, but we are not done fighting. #policereform

Rev. Eileen Smith from the South Pittsburgh Coalition for Peace urges us to come together and call on our legislators for stronger gun laws.
Change is going to come and it starts with you. Contact @SenToomey and tell him to close the Charleston Loophole! bit.ly/2UOV6ZW
