Following the Sandy Hook tragedy in December, President Obama declared this week that we, as a country, cannot tolerate another such incident.
If there is even one step we can take to save another child, or another parent, or another town, from the grief that has visited Tucson, and Aurora, and Oak Creek, and Newtown, and communities from Columbine to Blacksburg before that -- then surely we have an obligation to try.
People For the American Way praised President Obama for this week putting forward bold proposals to combat gun violence and joins him in urging Congress to take swift action on the issue.
