MOMS? DEMAND ACTION ON FATHERS DAY!

It's time for gun sense in America


#OffTarget

Semi-automatic assault rifles don’t belong in the baby aisle—or anywhere else in Target. Yet gun extremists around the country have made it a point to bring their rifles into Target stores. Moms don’t want to feel unsafe and intimidated when we go shopping with our children. We’re asking Target to immediately end open carry in its stores. Target needs to follow in the footsteps of Starbucks, Chipotle, Chili’s, Sonic and Jack in the Box and put customer safety first. Nearly 90% of Target customers are women; they need to know we expect them to get gun sense.

#NotOneMore

Just hours after his son was murdered by a gunman in Isla Vista, California, Richard Martinez courageously stated: “When will we enough people say: Stop this madness? We don’t have to live like this. We should say to ourselves: Not One More!” As moms, we must stand with Mr. Martinez, and demand common-sense gun laws NOW. Take action today. Send a postcard and tweet your elected officials with the simple message: Not One More.

Chipotle Listened to Moms!

In less than 48 hours, Chipotle Mexican Grill responded to Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America’s petition asking them to prohibit guns from their restaurants after gun extremists brought semi-automatic, loaded assault weapons into a Dallas-area restaurant. Thanks to you, our petition garnered more than 10,000 signatures in just a few hours! Chipotle said in a statement, “…we are respectfully asking that customers not bring guns into our restaurants, unless they are authorized law enforcement personnel.”
