Add your name: Gun control now

Will you sign and share my petition telling Congress that we need commonsense gun control now? Click here to sign.

Dear MoveOn member,

What's unfolding in Las Vegas—one of the deadliest mass shootings in modern United States history—is yet another tragic illustration of the effects of gun violence in our country.1 And in the aftermath, it's clear that families and individuals will need emergency aid measures such as blood donations, grief counseling, and more. 

We also know that the days to come will be a moment to confront and have public discussion about our nation's gun violence epidemic.

Will you sign and share my petition telling Congress that we need commonsense gun control now and help encourage public dialogue on gun control? Click here to sign.

We need commonsense gun control now.

I'm a MoveOn member. I'm a gun owner. I'm a Christian. I'm a Grammy-winning country music producer. And I'm asking us to come together, in the wake of one of the deadliest mass shootings in modern U.S. history, and stand up to the NRA by calling for an end to senseless gun violence.

We need commonsense gun control now, including the following:

  • Ban civilian ownership of weapons designed for warfare.
  • Close the gun show loophole.
  • Create certificates of ownership for firearms, similar to automobiles, which should be governed by similar regulations, including the need for training, testing, and insurance.

Click here to add your name to this petition, and then pass it along to your friends.

Thanks for taking action!
