Friend -- In his State of the Union address, President Obama reminded us: The victims of shootings like those in Newtown, Aurora, Oak Creek, and Tucson deserve a vote on legislation that will reduce gun violence and better protect our children and our communities. So this Friday, February 22nd, Organizing for Action volunteers all around the country are participating in a Day of Action focused on one simple goal: get Congress to pass legislation to require universal background checks and remove loopholes. There's an event near you in Los Angeles -- will you be there? Here are the details: What: Day of Action event in Los Angeles Where: 8436 West 3rd St Los Angeles, CA 90048 When: Friday, February 22nd 9:30 am my.barackobama.com/page/event/detail/gsk448The President has already taken key steps, but Congress needs to act, and we need to demand it. Requiring background checks for all gun sales is a common-sense solution that 92 percent of Americans, 89 percent of Republicans, and 74 percent of NRA members support. We've got to keep firearms from getting into the wrong hands -- and this is a crucial first step. So come out on Friday in your community and make sure your representatives and senators know where you stand.
