Dear Friends,
This week, the New York State Assembly made history, passing major legislation to fight the public health crisis of gun violence.
New Yorkers can not afford for these life-saving measures to languish in the State Senate or on the Governor's desk.
If we are serious about protecting the public from the scourge of gun violence- not just grabbing headlines -we need bold advocates in Albany with long, consistent records of fighting gun violence and opposing NRA-controlled conservatives to drive real progress in the conversation and in legislation.
As the People's Lieutenant Governor, I will continue the passionate work to stop not only the mass shootings that make the news, but the daily gun violence that plagues our streets from Brooklyn to Buffalo.
Help us to keep pushing for life-saving gun safety measures in New York.
Sincerely,
Jumaane D. Williams
EDITOR'S NOTE:
It is nice to see that City Councilman Williams is not getting arrested to get some publicity. It is unfortunate that he only thinks of Brooklyn and Buffalo, and not the rest of New York City or New York State.
