RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA- Volunteers from Organizing for Action and five Coalition Partners, which include Mayors Against Illegal Guns, Brady Campaign, MoveOn, SEIU, and Parents of Murdered Children gathered in Rancho Cucamonga for a gun violence prevention rally. According to Curt Lewis, volunteer organizer, over 200 gun similar events were held around the Nation to remind Congress that the overwhelming majority of Americans support the legislation to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people.
“This was the first gathering of our coalition,” Lewis said. “We all want Rep. Gary Miller to step up and be a part of the solution by co-sponsoring H.R. 1565, the Public Safety and Second Amendment Rights Protection Act, and we thought this would be a way for the Congressman to hear our collective voice.
