Supreme Court allows federal regulation of ‘ghost gun’ kits The Biden administration sought to regulate kits for making untraceable weapons as if they’re regular firearms. Gun companies and groups went to court.

Thank you everyone who helped us make this happen. THIS WILL SAVE LIVES! www.msnbc.com/deadline-whi...

Trump hides his tax returns but wants to give your tax information to Elon Musk, don’t let him.

Trump administration removes ATF general counsel Pamela Hicks, a 23-year veteran of the department, confirmed she was fired from the ATF on LinkedIn.

Pamela Hicks along with the other men and women of the ATF work hard to save lives. I know this first hand. This is a mistake. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

I guess it’s time to go back to regular posting. Mostly gun violence prevention, some politics, and occasional fun. Here’s NYC with my art obsessed roommates;-)

So many friends who lost someone. So many futures stolen. Use this day to remember this tragedy and to write your lawmakers and demand an assault weapons ban!

Today, I joined state office holders, members of RI Reps & Senators w/advocates & survivors of gun violence to support assault weapons ban in RI. Thx to @momsdemand.bsky.social & @ricagv.bsky.social for showing up & to @miatretta.bsky.social for speaking up in the wake of unthinkable loss and pain.

McKee, gun safety advocates set sights again on passing an assault weapons ban • Rhode Island Current Gov. Dan McKee, general office holders and lawmakers joined gun safety advocates at a State House rally Tuesday afternoon, calling for 2025 to be the year Rhode Island passes an assault weapons ban.

I met @miatretta.bsky.social as a fellow safe gun advocate.

Instantly enchanted by her intelligence and sense of fun, I had NO idea she’d survived being shot by a school shooter in California.

This is the kind of action you take when you value guns over lives. Not surprising, but still despicable.

How can we continue? I’m asked that a lot. Well, still work on the things that matter to you most. For me that’s mental health, safe firearm storage, regulation of ghost guns, and education. Just cause it’s harder, we can’t give up. Let me know how I can help your cause! #keepGoing #GVP

CDC Data Are Disappearing The agency has already removed scientific data from public view. More could follow.

Data are power. I share the concerns of my Brown colleagues that removing critical CDC data will make it much harder to serve communities and improve our health. As @gabyaboulafia.bsky.social said tonight, we understand society in part because of these data.

Today please honor #EthanSong by double checking that your firearms are locked and safely stored away from children and those in crises. This tiny thing will save countless lives. #EthansLaw songstrong.org/home/

Seven years ago today, 15-year-old Ethan Song was fatally shot with an unsecured gun at a friend's house.

His parents, Kristin and Mike Song, experienced pain that no parent should have to endure, yet far too many do because of firearms that are kept unlocked and loaded.

I’m all for thoughts + prayers for many things but they clearly don’t work against school violence. How about instead we focus on healing + policy.
Sending my support to the victims/wounded/survivors. I will honor you with my action. #Enough #GVP #PolicyOverPrayers

I was shot by a GHOST GUN. My 14 year old best friend killed by a GHOST GUN. They are a threat to all of us. President Biden did his part to regulate, the ATF did their part to regulate. Tell your community leaders to do their’s. #Regulate #GhostGuns #GVP

And let’s be clear: CEOs are not the only victims. I know too many survivors of ghost gun shootings, like @miatretta.bsky.social, who was shot at her California high school. Ghost guns pose threats to all of us, especially when they are readily accessible to anyone, anywhere.

Figuring out how we move forward and work together the next four years. Anyone have Republicans that could support our GVP work.? Local, state, federal? Let me know! Let’s work together. #Together #GVP #KeepGoing ❤️🤍💙

Elementary school students and a CEO. Not to mention all the others we just don’t hear about. Gun Violence: Americas preventable killer. We have to do better.

My mom told me a story yesterday about having to call in a wellness check on a person having a mental health crises, and firearms in the home. Just a reminder that our work does not stop because of who’s going to be president. Our work matters more now than ever. #KeepGoing #GunViolencePrevention

Coming home from college is always great. Coming home to a giant party at our house in honor of our new Congressman elect @georgewhitesides.bsky.social and our returning Assemblywoman Pilar Schiavo makes it incredible! Let’s go CA 27! #GVP

College is hard. Advocating is hard. Life is hard. Sometime you have to stop and make donuts with the students and staff at Johnson and Wales.

Hello Bluesky friends: I created a starter pack to elevate the life saving work being done by gun violence prevention advocates. I’d be grateful if you would consider sharing on your feeds. Thanks!

A few years after I was shot in a school shooting I got to meet and introduce President Biden. He was kind, empathetic, and inspiring. He told me not just to keep going but to keep pushing for change, and that’s what I’ll do. That’s a president. 💙

I had lost my phone after getting shot. A girl in the classroom we hid in text my mom for me. People say “I can’t imagine what you went through” but you can and it’s exactly as you think. Terrible.
