Ky-Cuong -- Two weeks ago, 45 senators sided with the gun lobby and voted to block the expansion of background checks for gun sales. Every single one of those senators expects the issue to fade away -- that, over time, we'll all forget. We won't, and next week, OFA will hand congressional leaders physical proof of it: the names of hundreds of thousands of people who aren't backing down. Sign the petition today and demand action to prevent gun violence: [url] I've spent enough time in Washington to know that the way you win a fight like this, faced with some of the most powerful special interests, is just to refuse to give up. Thanks -- we'll keep you posted.

This is huge: More than 600,000 Americans have already signed our petition to Congress demanding action to prevent gun violence.

If you haven't signed the petition yet, make sure you do that right now.

But we're not stopping at 600,000. So this weekend, folks in Pennsauken are getting together to ask their friends and neighbors to sign on and make their voices heard, too. Will you help out?

Here are the details: What: Petition drive in Pennsauken

Where: 7050 North Park Drive Pennsauken, NJ 08109

When: Saturday, May 4th 11:00 am

RSVP now

Something you should know about this petition: It's not just addressed to the Senate. We're letting everyone in Congress know that we will hold them accountable -- they have the power to do something real to help prevent gun violence, and we won't let them get away with refusing to act.

OFA will be personally delivering the petition signatures to congressional leaders next week -- so there's still time to sign it.

Come out on Saturday to make sure people who care about reducing gun violence where you live get a chance to sign this petition:

It's all hands on deck. Thanks for being a part of this.
