9 years ago, I was doing what I loved most—meeting with constituents—when six people were killed, 12 were injured, and I was shot in the head at a Safeway in Tucson. What I've learned since that day is that it's not the setback that defines us, but how we respond to it. 
After I was shot, I struggled with the lives we lost that day. But from great loss, we created profound change. As I worked to regain my strength, we built a strong social movement to prevent future tragedies. As I worked to find my words again, America found its voice.
9 years since the Tucson shooting, Americans are raising their voices.
Senator McConnell and President Trump may sit silent, but voters will not.
America’s voice will be decisive in 2020. If Senate leaders won’t vote on universal background checks, we’ll elect leaders who will.
