Thx to @TishJames, we were just delivered news of a MAJOR legal win against the NRA.
Meanwhile, *right now* @bradybuzz leaders are testifying for vital gun violence prevention bills in both Colorado and Nevada.
Naturally, the NRA is opposing both of these bills.

The Colorado bill (SB 21-256) would empower localities to adopt gun safety measures that meet the needs of their own local communities.
That's common-sense. It's exactly what local govts should do, esp in the face of CO's gun suicide crisis.
But the NRA thinks it's "confusing."

Right now, Coloradan & gun violence survivor @MaishaFields is testifying in support of this crucial gun violence prevention bill.
Major urban areas here in CO have seen astronomical spikes in gun violence. Coloradans need sensible and lifesaving solutions, like SB 21-256. #COleg

Meanwhile, right now @bradybuzz leader Christiane Brown is testifying in Nevada for AB 286, a bill to ban deadly "ghost guns."
These are untraceable firearms that are bought in kits online — without background checks— and assembled at home. #NVleg

Sure enough, the NRA is lobbying hard to block AB 286 bill from passing in Nevada.
This vital gun violence prevention bill was introduced by 1 October survivor @sandra4nv. She knows from firsthand experience the solutions we need to prevent senseless gun violence. #NVLeg

We cannot end America's gun violence epidemic if every solution is endlessly blocked by the NRA and gun lobby.
