Today's Ceasefire editorial: We DON"T need more guns in schools.
coloradosun.com/2025/10/28/o...
Opinion: “Arm teachers” refrain after Evergreen High School shooting is misguided and dangerous
More guns to fight school shootings is not the answer. Sensible gun laws, mental health support, and better security is.

September 9th is #FirearmSuicidePreventionDay. Over half of all gun deaths in America are suicides. By
working together to store guns safely, we can #EndFamilyFire and save lives.

A child knocking on your door is not a threat. If your response is to reach for a gun and shoot, you’ve failed the basic standard of responsible gun ownership.

Guns demand care, training, and accountability—especially when kids’ lives are at stake. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...

It has been six years since seven people were killed and 25 people were injured in a mass shooting in the Midland and Odessa, Texas.

Call your members of Congress (202) 224-3121 and urge them to cosponsor the bill to #BanAssaultWeapons.

Republicans have decided that their political careers are so important that the gruesome deaths of children are a small price to pay.

Speaker Mike Johnson on the Minnesota shooting: "At the end of the day the problem is not guns. Ok, Jen Psaki? The problem is the human heart. It's mental health."

As of today, Colorado parents will receive gun violence prevention materials from your child’s school. House Bill 25-1270 requires the state to develop and post those materials online so schools can share them. Colorado Ceasefire worked to help pass this bill!

Gun violence is down 31% nationwide in part because of community-based programs that intervene before violence starts. These programs are now under attack. Sign this petition and help protect what’s working. win.newmode.net/communityvio...

If you haven’t heard about the Trump administration’s efforts to loosen gun policy, that is by design. The crusade is deliberately being kept below the radar because the administration knows these actions are DEEPLY unpopular.
