LAST CHANCE TO RSVP -- Discussion & Desserts: The State of Gun Violence, June 8
Please join us on June 8 in the Town Hall, 7-8 pm, for a discussion about gun violence in the US and common sense gun laws we can adopt to reduce it.
Maryland State Senator Waldstreicher will lead off the discussion with a quick overview of the common sense gun laws Maryland enacted after the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School mass shooting in 2012 -- including three gun safety bills he championed this year which have just been signed into law by Governor Moore.
Chris Files will present a quick overview of the scope of gun violence in the US, key gun laws and recent Supreme Court decisions affecting gun laws, and critical policies we can adopt to save lives on which there is substantial consensus between Americans who do and do not own firearms. Town resident Maria Pekala will briefly describe her work with Moms Demand Action and their efforts to enact gun safety laws in Maryland and the nation. There will be a substantial Q& A period.
Gun owners and veterans encouraged to join the discussion. RSVP at bit.ly/TOCCDiscussion.
