• LEGAL ENFORCEMENT:OUR LEGAL TEAM HAS LED THE GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION MOVEMENT IN LANDMARK VICTORIES ON BEHALF OF GUN VIOLENCE VICTIMS FOR MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS REPRESENTING FAMILIES OF SLAIN CHILDREN, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS, POLICE OFFICERS SHOT IN THE LINE OF DUTY, ENTIRE COMMUNITIES, AND MANY OTHER PLAINTIFFS. THROUGH LITIGATION, WE CHALLENGE LAWS THAT PUT AMERICANS AT GREATER RISK, AND WE TARGET SOURCES OF CRIME GUNS BY SUING GUN DEALERS WHO DON'T FOLLOW THE LAW AND ESTABLISHED BEST PRACTICES WHEN SELLING GUNS. ADDITIONALLY, BRADY'S LEGAL TEAM STEPS IN WHEN THE AMERICAN PUBLIC'S SAFETY IS THREATENED AS A WHOLE, SUCH AS THE THREAT OF WIDESPREAD CREATION OF 3D PRINTED GUNS, GHOST GUNS, AND OTHER EMERGING, AND AS YET UNIDENTIFIED, DANGERS TO THE PUBLIC.CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE:BRADY'S COMBATING CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE AIMS TO REDUCE GUN VIOLENCE IN IMPACTED COMMUNITIES BY STEMMING THE FLOW OF CRIME GUNS INTO THOSE COMMUNITIES, FREQUENTLY FROM DEALERS OUTSIDE THEIR CITY OR EVEN THEIR OWN STATE. THE BURDEN OF ENDING GUN VIOLENCE SHOULD NOT REST SOLELY ON THE COMMUNITIES MOST IMPACTED. A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO ENDING GUN VIOLENCE ADDRESSES THE SUPPLY SIDE, SPECIFICALLY THE GUN INDUSTRY AND THE MINORITY OF IRRESPONSIBLE DEALERS WHO ARE CONTRIBUTING TO AND PROFITING FROM GUN VIOLENCE. THE COMBATING CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE RELIES ON A THREE-PRONGED STRATEGY OF EDUCATION, IDENTIFICATION, AND REFORM TO SHIFT FOCUS ON THE UPSTREAM SOURCE OF CRIME GUNS, RATHER THAN THE INDIVIDUALS THAT PERPETRATE CRIME. THE COMBATING CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE ENGAGES WITH COMMUNITIES ON EACH OF THESE PRONGS IN ORDER TO BRING SUPPLY-SIDE SOLUTIONS TO THEIR CITIES AND STATES. AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL, THE COMBATING CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE PURSUES EFFORTS FOR INCREASED DATA TRANSPARENCY ABOUT THE SOURCES AND PATHS OF TRAFFICKED FIREARMS AND GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT OF THE FIREARMS INDUSTRY, AS WELL AS PURSUING PROGRAMS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT AND PRIVATE SECTOR COMPANIES AIMED TO REDUCE THE FLOW OF TRAFFICKED FIREARMS INTO IMPACTED COMMUNITIES.
