A federal Concealed Carry Mandate (CCM) would gut state gun safety laws and allow people with dangerous histories—violent criminals, domestic abusers, even convicted stalkers—to carry hidden, loaded guns in public in states that wouldn’t otherwise let them.

"Booker can help rebrand his party as less risk-averse and more willing to try … something. He can rebrand himself, just as the old and ineffective guard falters. Booker’s speech was raw and visceral and real and angry. He did something. Now his colleagues and American voters must do more."

This removal was just the latest in a series of deadly rollbacks by the Trump administration. As we await details on Trump’s recent executive order to ‘dismantle’ gun laws, we must remain vigilant.

We cannot let these growing attacks happen quietly. Demand action now: bradyunited.org/protectgunlaws
JUST IN: The Trump administration removed the 2024 Surgeon General advisory declaring gun violence a public health crisis from the HHS website.

This was historic action that #ThisIsOurLane founder @josephsakran.bsky.social & public health leaders spent years advocating for. This is a step backward.

Trump’s Pentagon is erasing Navajo Code Talkers—Indigenous warriors who helped win WWII—from military websites. This isn’t about “efficiency.” It’s about whitewashing history and erasing those who don’t fit his MAGA narrative.

The Trump Administration just removed the HHS report declaring gun violence a public health crisis.

Let's be clear: Taking down a report won’t change the fact that our country has a gun homicide rate 26x that of peer nations, or that guns are the #1 killer of our kids.
