Mission

WE'RE FREEING AMERICA FROM GUN VIOLENCE.IN A COUNTRY WHERE FIREARMS OUTNUMBER PEOPLE, OUR COUNTRY'S GUN VIOLENCE EPIDEMIC REQUIRES A MULTI-PRONGED APPROACH AND THAT'S WHAT BRADY, THE LEADING GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION ORGANIZATION IN AMERICA, DELIVERS. INSPIRED BY THE ROADMAP BEHIND SUCCESSFUL MOVEMENTS TO CURB YOUTH SMOKING, PROMOTE SEATBELT USE, AND PREVENT DRUNK DRIVING, WE TACKLE THREE CRITICAL AREAS: CHANGE THE LAWS, CHANGE THE INDUSTRY, AND CHANGE THE CULTURE. THIS COMBINATION IS UNIQUE IN THE GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION MOVEMENT AND IS ESSENTIAL TO TACKLING THIS EPIDEMIC. THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF AMERICANS INCLUDING DEMOCRATS, REPUBLICANS, INDEPENDENTS, AND GUN OWNERS SUPPORT STRONGER GUN LAWS AND RESPONSIBLE GUN OWNERSHIP. OUR GOAL IS TO BUILD A SENSIBLE POLICY FOUNDATION THAT KEEPS AMERICANS SAFE WITHOUT INFRINGING ON THEIR SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHTS. WE BUILD UPON THE BIPARTISAN LEGACY OF OUR NAMESAKES, JIM AND SARAH BRADY, WHO WON THE LANDMARK BRADY BILL.
