Those who put their lives on the line for our freedoms deserve better.

According to @GiffordsCourage Law Center, 85% of suicide attempts by firearm end in death. This means that when those who have served are in the middle of a crisis, their likelihood of survival is extremely low.
@GiffordsCourage Let’s do better for our veterans by enacting safe storage laws, red flag laws, & background checks.
Let’s do better for our veterans by reforming our healthcare system to ensure they can get the proper mental health help they need.

@GiffordsCourage Let’s do better for those who are suffering from the trauma of violence all over our country.
Let’s do better because we can. Because we should. Because the influence of NRA money shouldn’t determine whether someone lives or dies. Because it’s the least we can do.
