GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION

What Elizabeth Will Do:

Ensure Universal Background Checks

  • Close the gun show loophole

  • Ensure every gun sale includes a background check

  • Why it matters: 90% of Americans support this. It's common sense.

Promote Red Flag Laws

  • Allow families and law enforcement to temporarily remove guns from individuals in crisis

  • Prevent suicides and mass shootings

  • Why it matters: Elizabeth has worked in mental health settings. Red flag laws save lives.

Ban Assault Weapons and High-Capacity Magazines

  • Weapons of war don't belong in our neighborhoods

  • Why it matters: No one needs an AR-15 to hunt deer. But mass shooters use them to kill children.

Invest in Mental Health and Violence Prevention

  • Address root causes of gun violence

  • Fund community intervention programs

  • Why it matters: Prevention works.
