(Bill HR748): Kids Around - Lock Guns Down!

The most up-to-date listing of safe gun storage laws by state.  The focus is on Child Access Prevention (CAP) to guns when kids are in a home.

Our goal is to pass Ethan's Law.  We must reach 218 co-sponsors in the House of Representatives before Congress will vote on the bill.  The bill is named after our son Ethan who was shot and killed by an unsecured gun at a neighbor's home.  Ethan's Law passed in Connecticut,  with overwhelming, bipartisan support.

GOAL: REACH 218 CO-SPONSORS FOR ETHAN's LAW (HR 748) IN HOUSE
178 Co-Sponsors (218 Needed)

PURPOSE: A national safe gun storage law will reduce deaths caused by suicide, school shootings, and stolen firearms.  It would also reduce unintentional deaths.  Sign the petition below and commit to calling one legislator today.
