Dear [REP NAME]:

Tennessee children and families have invaluable worth and deserve leaders who will keep us safe and do their part to help prevent gun violence in our communities. 

We want elected leaders who know our children’s worth and are willing to prove it by passing legislation to save their lives such as enhanced background checks and permitting processes to ensure that those who pose a danger to themselves or others do not have access to firearms, laws that ensure that firearms are stored properly to prevent children from accidentally accessing firearms, and limits on high capacity magazines. 

[CUSTOMIZE THE MESSAGE AT THE RIGHT: INSERT PERSONAL EXPERIENCES AND STORIES THAT EXPLAIN WHY THESE VALUES ARE IMPORTANT TO YOU AS A TENNESSEE VOTER]

Thousands of parents, children, and community members have rallied for common sense safety gun reforms supported by law enforcement. Instead, power-hungry politicians are attempting to silence us based on what we believe, what we look like, or where we live, to distract from their failures to make Tennessee safer for all our children.

Our children and families are worth more than the distractions spread by politicians who point the blame at some group that is different while they block the common sense gun safety measures that the vast majority of us and law enforcement want.

All Tennesseans, no matter our age, race, gender, or where we live in the state, deserve to live free from the fear of gun violence and are demanding that our elected leaders enact common sense gun legislation to make that freedom possible. Please be one of those leaders.
