This morning, Mayor Michael Bloomberg appeared on Good Morning America to launch theNational Drive to Fix Gun Checks and raise awareness of gun crime across the country.
The Fix Gun Checks billboard truck started off the tour in Times Square and keeps a running toll of the numbers of the Americans murdered by guns since the tragic shooting in Tucson, Arizona. Our National Drive will criss-cross at least 25 states to meet with mayors, law enforcement, faith leaders, victims of gun violence, sportsmen, and supporters.
Leading the drive is Omar Samaha, whose sister Reema was shot and killed in the Virginia Tech Massacre. He will help urge Congress and the President to fix the broken background check system that makes it too easy for dangerous people to purchase guns.
More than a quarter million Americans have signed the Fix Gun Checks petitions, and you can join them by adding your name today. Visit www.fixgunchecks.org to learn more and follow our Drive across the country.
