Everytown for Gun Safety
Everytown for Gun Safety was established by Michael R. Bloomberg who is the former mayor of New York City. It is a nonprofit lobbying organization that works to prevent gun violence by educating policymakers, the public, and the media. The group has taken positions on seven ballot measures in the state and has raised more than $39.5million. Michael Bloomberg pledged $50million to the group's causes in the 2014 election cycle.
Moms Demand Action
The distinction of being a Gun Sense Candidate is given to the candidate who will promote gun safety. This distinction offers many benefits, including the ability reach millions of gun safety fans. As a result, this distinction carries a weight of great importance. Not only is it important for voters, it also signals to other candidates that the moms demand a change in our gun laws and policies.
Rocky Mountain Gun Owners
Colorado's NRA has been criticized for its radical gun policies and alleged connections with Russian oligarchs. This may be why the NRA did NOT endorse any candidates during the November elections. The Colorado voter base is overwhelmingly in favor of common sense gun laws, and they expect the Democratic-controlled legislature to pass them. Common sense laws aim to prevent guns being taken from the hands of dangerous people and violent criminals. The NRA is not in favor of these laws, and it is up to the Democratic-led legislature to pass them.
University of Texas
The University of Texas recently named three of its students recipients of the Civitatis Award. This award honors meritorious, dedicated service above or beyond what one might expect from their positions. These candidates are against the concealed handgun ban. They have also demonstrated a commitment towards public safety. Their names are to be inscribed on the University of Texas's plaque. These students have been chosen to represent UT's Gun Sense Council.
Democratic candidates in gun sense races
Two ads that emphasized the importance of gun control were ran by Democratic candidates in the state. Lt. Lt. None of the candidates have yet answered the question about universal background checks for gun ownership. Gun control is becoming increasingly divisive and polarizing both political parties.
Everytown's efforts to Virginia
Virginia is a highly-contested state. Gun safety advocates entered the race for the statewide election. Everytown for Gun Safety (the nation's leading gun control group) has invested $2 million in a range of Democratic candidates. The group is a prominent proponent for banning assault weapons and is funded in large part by Michael Bloomberg, the former mayor of New York City. Everytown released an earlier poll which found that 74% of Virginians supported a ban.
Michael Bloomberg's dark money group
After a string of disappointing midterm elections, Michael Bloomberg's political organization plans to ramp up its political advertising efforts to support gun-sense candidates. Its goal is to win three Senate seats as well as control of state legislatures. The group hopes to convince voters in Florida to elect Joe Biden Jr., former Vice President. The group has already pledged $60 Million to support gun-sense candidate in 2020.
