Just a few days after my son, Christopher, was shot and killed, I asked concerned Americans like you to send a postcard to your elected officials with the simple, powerful message of "Not One More."
Since then, more than 600,000 supporters have signed postcards to their senators, representatives, and governors declaring "Not One More."
That means we have nearly 2.5 million postcards to deliver in the next couple weeks -- so we're going to need a hand from a few dedicated volunteers like you.

Having your child die is the worst thing that can happen to somebody. There really aren't words to describe the feeling.
I never expected the tremendous response we got to our "Not One More" campaign -- and I'm extraordinarily grateful. It's a response that politicians in Washington and around the country can't ignore.
Last week, I went to Senator Jeff Flake's office in Phoenix with other family members of victims and survivors of gun violence to deliver more than 10,000 of the postcards. It was a powerful, memorable experience to say the least -- and now we're planning dozens more deliveries just like it around the country.
You can be part of the effort to make sure our elected officials get the message.
RSVP now to join us in Morristown.
Thank you so much for everything you're doing,
Richard Martinez
