A survey commissioned by Everytown for Gun Safety says 63 percent of respondents don’t think college students should be allowed to carry concealed handguns on campus. A greater number of those polled opposed concealed handguns in classrooms or dorms.
Last week we gathered with survivors of gun violence to launch the #NotOneMore leather bracelet.
The “Not One More” bracelet represents a commitment to a future where fewer families have to go through the pain of losing a loved one to gun violence. It is a reminder of what’s at stake in the fight for safer communities.
