Join us Thursday at 7:00 PM CDT for our Zoom Gun Violence Prevention meeting. We’ll be joined by Maria Peterson, who will discuss the outcomes of the Primary election and what they mean as we look ahead to the Midterm elections in November.

We’ll also take time to talk about how we can move forward from here, including the organizing, outreach, and advocacy needed to keep momentum going. This conversation will help us think strategically about the months ahead and how we can stay engaged.

In addition, we’ll share an update on the RIFL bill and discuss the upcoming day of advocacy in Springfield, now scheduled for May 8th. This will be an important chance to hear where things stand and how we can continue pushing for progress.

Please plan to join us for this important discussion and bring your questions, ideas, and energy. Together, we can stay informed and keep building toward safer communities.

We encourage everyone to join the discussion, ask questions, and help build momentum for stronger gun safety action in 2026 and beyond. You won’t want to miss this inspiring conversation with a candidate who truly understands what’s at stake.
