We're Still Here
Election Day may have passed but our work is far from done. Take some time to rest, then come back for updates, actions and encouragement. While official FADC activities may have slowed down, we're not going anywhere. If you need someone to talk to, we're here. Please continue to check our News/Events and Volunteer pages, our calendar, and our social media pages for new actions.
JOIN FADC IN FIGHTING FOR GUN SAFETY
As of February 15 this year, 5,000 people in the U.S. had died from gun violence, averaging 108 deaths daily, according to the Gun Violence Archive (ABC News). This includes 178 children and teens, with many deaths being preventable suicides.
These figures are shocking, and the Folsom Area Democratic Club is committed to gun safety. We support Moms Demand Action, a national organization fighting against gun violence. We urge you to join us in reducing these senseless killings.
California has one of the lowest rates of gun violence deaths, partly due to its permit requirements, which are lacking in states with the highest gun death rates. Requiring permits for gun ownership is no more burdensome than for other common activities.
There are many ways to curb gun violence: background checks, safe gun storage education, disarming domestic abusers, and electing representatives who support gun safety. Sensible gun laws, regulating gun and ammunition sales, and community safety plans are essential.
Our efforts are hindered by Congressman Kevin Kiley, who consistently votes against gun safety legislation. To contact him, visit his website at https://kiley.house.gov/.
We urge you to write to your representatives, urging them to support gun safety laws. Join FADC to help make 2024 free of mass shootings and gun violence.
