Gun Violence

In Congress, I would oppose the sweeping overreach of the NRA and an fight for common sense gun reform. As an educator, I saw the fear and trauma that gun violence inflicts on our children. During my time as School Board Chair, we strengthened our gun safety protocols in Gwinnett and created task forces at each school for safe schools implementation. We must treat gun violence as the public health crisis it is and invest in prevention, especially community-based approaches that actually save lives.

  • Universal Background Checks: Mandate universal background checks for all gun sales, including private sales and gun shows

  • Ban High-Capacity Weapons: Prohibit assault weapons and devices that convert firearms into machine guns.

  • Safety & Licensing: Require a 10-day waiting period, mandatory safety training, safe storage, and the prohibition of Prohibit a person subject to a temporary domestic violence restraining order from having a gun for the duration of the order.

  • Red-flag Laws: Strengthen red-flag laws to keep weapons out of the hands of those who are a clear danger to themselves or others. 

  • Gun-Free Zones: Maintain gun-free zones in public spaces such as schools, hospitals,public lands, and government buildings
