Stopping Gun Violence

Posted on February 1, 2013 by Lawton, OK NAACP

All-too easy access to guns and the resulting gun violence are a grave problem in the United States today, and this is especially true in urban and distressed neighborhoods and communities of color.

Specifically, the NAACP strongly supports S. 150 / H.R. 437, which would implement a permanent ban on the sale, transfer, importation, and manufacturing of assault weapons as well as large-capacity magazines and other ammunition feeding devices that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition.

For more information on the toll of gun violence and how you can be a strong advocate, please see the online Action Alert.
As always, thank you!
