Three years ago I spoke at a rally, days after the Covenant school shooting, demanding common sense gun laws from our state legislature. Since then, no meaningful gun legislation has passed. The TN Rs who hold a supermajority need to be voted out. Please vote accordingly.

Everyone is safer when domestic abusers don't have access to firearms. Please join us in making public comments on the DOJ's proposed rule which would allow violent people to possess firearms. #DoctorsForGunSafety #MedSky
We’ve been under single party rule in TN for 15 years. Gun violence keeps worsening while the supermajority does nothing. A vote for Republicans is a vote for the status quo: too many children, teens & adults lost to guns.
You gotta vote blue if you care about this issue! #DoctorsForGunSafety

Can we do something about the guns? How about bringing back the nationwide assault weapons ban? Or a mandatory waiting period? How about required mental health screening to purchase a deadly weapon?
Guns are the #1 cause of death for kids in the US!

Americans support common sense gun laws. It’s about damn time our elected officials listen to us!

Glad to hear the Republicans can't pull a fast one and deregulate dangerous guns in their big bad budget bill.

I wear orange because I’ve seen too much death from gun violence in my emergency departments and I know there is a better way. #DoctorsForGunSafety #ThisIsMyLane #MedSky

Hey #MedSky folks, AMWA is hosting a webinar on Monday Dec 8th from 8-9:30 EST featuring the wonderful Dr. Mark Shapiro, speaking on firearm safety. It's free and anyone can attend. #DoctorsForGunSafety
The #Tennessee Republican supermajority won't pass safe storage laws & gun owners are not held accountable when they are reckless. This was a preventable tragedy. This fall, I'll be voting for gun sense candidates.
#DoctorsForGunSafety #EndGunViolence
I'm making daily phone calls to #Tennessee Gov Lee’s office asking him to veto SB1325/HB1202, the bill that would let teachers bring guns into their classrooms. Please join me and give him a call at (615)741-2001. Tell him to VETO this dangerous bill. #DoctorsForGunSafety #ProtectKidsNotGuns 🦞💙🩺
Enough is enough. We need the Federal Assault Weapons ban now. Sign the petition from the Newtown Action Alliance and call your Congress person and Senators, uring them to pass this legislation in order to save lives. #DoctorsForGunSafety #OnCall4Kids #MedSky 🩺
Hey #MedSky🩺 folks, if you haven't heard, a group of physicians and other HCW are headed to the Capitol tomorrow to lobby Congress for gun safety laws. If you have a spare moment today, please email or call you congress person & senators. #OnCall4Kids #DoctorsForGunSafety
Also, planning to share the Vandy poll that showed 70% of Tennesseans want background checks on all gun sales and 60% support safe storage laws. #Tennessee #OnCall4Kids #DoctorsForGunSafety #MedSky 🦞
Reading up on gun violence stats in #Tennessee in prep for meetings with the TN congressional delegation next week in DC. Found this report. Planning on giving a copy to all the congress members and senators we meet.
#OnCall4Kids #DoctorsForGunSafety #MedSky
"America’s physicians treat gun violence victims every single day, and we see it for the public health crisis that it is. We see the urgency of the moment, and we call on Congress to meet the moment."
