My name is Kris Brown, I’m the president of @bradybuzz.bsky.social, and as I work to end gun violence, my greatest goal is to put myself out of work.
When gun violence is the #1 killer of kids and young people in America, inaction is not an option.

Last week, we were at the National Research Conference for the Prevention of Firearm-Related Harms where we presented the #ThisIsOurLane resource, "How to Talk to Patients About Firearm Access and Safety" and survey results on how healthcare professionals feel about firearm safety discussions.

Folks, this is dystopian stuff.
And what's perhaps the scariest part is that no one knows this legislation is moving in Congress.
The weapons industry claims this will lessen fatal police violence. But police already have access to less-than-lethal weapons.
It's a ruse — and a deadly one at that.

Right now, the billion-dollar weapons industry is working to hoodwink Congress into passing legislation they claim will reduce police violence.
But that's a lie. What it really does is increase their profits — while unleashing new deadly weapons, including ghost guns.

Let's be clear: there is no Second Amendment right to illegally sell guns.
But Trump keeps deregulating the gun industry, rolling back safeguards, and even restoring gun rights to traffickers and abusers.
The NRA spent millions to elect him — and he’s paying them back with our safety.

While the world focused on the Epstein files, Congress took up a dangerous bill that sponsors say is to help law enforcement get greater access to “less-than-lethal” weapons.
In reality, it deregulates dangerous weapons to help a billion-dollar weapons industry make more money.
