Dear Greg -
Moments ago, we learned the U.S. Senate will vote on
Thursday to break a 13-Senator filibuster of legislation to reduce gun violence.
That means we have forty-eight hours to get sixty votes before we can
begin debate on issues like expanded background checks.
The good news
is, several Republican Senators have signaled that we deserve an up-or-down vote
on these issues.
But we need to convince a few more before the clock
runs out.
Can we count on you to contribute $10 or more to our
organization, Americans for Responsible Solutions, to help us run a campaign to
break the filibuster? http://action.americansforresponsiblesolutions.org/filibuster
Twenty first graders lost their lives in the classrooms of Connecticut.
Six Arizonans lost their lives coming to meet Gabby in Tucson. Thousands and
thousands of our fellow citizens who lose their lives to gun violence every
year. We cannot allow these 13 senators to deny those victims and their families
the vote they deserve.
Let's break this filibuster and pass expanded
background checks.
All the best,
Gabby Giffords & Mark Kelly
