IT'S TIME FOR LAWMAKERS TO SHOW UP AND LISTEN

June 20, 2025

Gun violence is tearing through Texas communities every day. And as we witnessed in the recent 89th Texas Legislative Session, our legislators aren’t listening to the majority of Texans on this issue.

That ends now.

We’re calling on every Texas lawmaker to hold a public district town hall on gun violence before the year ends. We’re asking them to show up and hear directly from survivors, gun owners, parents, first responders, teachers, and young people about what’s happening in our schools, our homes, and our communities.

No spin. No political games. Just an honest conversation—because that’s what Texans deserve, and it’s what public service demands.

Why now? It’s simple: Gun violence doesn’t take a break—lawmakers shouldn’t either.

The legislative session is over and we have less than a year until campaign season is in full swing. Before stumping on the campaign trail and making promises they’ll break as soon as they’re elected, Texas legislators need to take time to listen to their constituents.

Together, we can push for the open, honest conversations on gun violence that our communities deserve. It starts with one simple ask to your lawmakers: Will you show up and listen?

READY TO TAKE ACTION?

It takes all of us in the fight to end gun violence. Texans are showing up, and it’s time for lawmakers to do the same.

In solidarity,
