Legislators for Safer Communities
Legislators for Safer Communities is an independent, nonpartisan coalition of state legislators across all 50 states committed to reducing gun violence. We recognize gun violence is a public health issue with complex roots in systemic inequalities. We acknowledge the disproportionate impact of gun violence on Black and Brown communities, and we are dedicated to implementing solutions that center on equity and justice. We serve as a hub for legislative resources, professional messaging, strategy, research, and peer networking. By collaborating across state lines and engaging with stakeholders from diverse backgrounds, we strive to create safer communities where every individual can thrive without fear of gun violence.
ABOUT THE COALITION
