March For Our Lives

@AMarch4OurLives

Mar 24, 2021

It’s been 3 years since the March For Our Lives. Today, we planned on posting a different message, one of celebration and gratitude, but 9 mass shootings in the past 7 days are painful reminders that we don’t have the luxury to celebrate progress. (thread)

Our country is in a constant cycle of violence and apathy, and it’s hard to watch more communities grieve when all we wanted 3 years ago, and all we want today, is for people to live free from gun violence.

We mourn the lives stolen in Boulder, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Chicago, and every city across America, and share the sorrow of those who carry a new title: survivor.

A people-powered movement needs mutual aid! 👏

March For Our Lives is on a journey to truly support and center the communities most impacted by gun violence.

Shifting resources through mutual aid is one way of doing that.

BIPOC communities have been affected by gun violence the most and have organized to fight it the longest. But they have not received equal resources or national support. We can’t end the epidemic of gun violence if these communities are left behind.

We just launched a national mutual aid & grants program to support BIPOC communities facing everyday gun violence and de-center whiteness in the GVP space. This is about rising up in solidarity and acknowledging the privilege our movement was built upon.

March For Our Lives

So, it's official. Trump has nominated Amy Coney Barrett to fill the open Supreme Court seat.

Here's a run down on #AmyConeyBarrett from our youth-led Judicial Advocacy Team.

Her beliefs harken back to an era:
- before civil rights
- before women's equality and right to choose
- before our country granted entry to people from all countries and cultures

Her confirmation would undo enormous strides we've made over the past several decades.

As a fundamental matter to our mission and advocacy, her confirmation would also threaten our constitutional right to not be shot.

- She has argued that common-sense background checks would “target” the whole Second Amendment.

“The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.”
-@senatemajldr Mitch McConnell, 2016

WE CALL BS on your hypocrisy Mitch. #LetThePeopleDecide

@tedcruz

2016: @tedcruz: “It has been 80 years since a Supreme Court vacancy was nominated and confirmed in an election year. There is a long tradition that you don’t do this in an election year.”

2018: @LindseyGrahamSC: “If an opening comes in the last year of President Trump’s term, and the primary process has started, we’ll wait to the next election.”
