When countries acted, lives were saved. After mass shootings and rising gun violence, nations like Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand passed stricter gun laws. The result? Gun deaths dropped significantly. Change is possible when we choose action over silence.

🇺🇸🇲🇽 The U.S. and Mexico just launched a joint initiative to curb cross-border gun trafficking. A step forward, but let’s be clear: Bad actors in the U.S. gun industry continue to supply the cartels by flooding the market with little oversight and zero accountability.

Irresponsible gun manufacturers fuel gun trafficking by ignoring red flags, exploiting weak laws, and flooding markets with little oversight. These practices don’t just harm the U.S.; they export violence globally. This is a public health crisis with a supply chain.

The U.S. gun industry doesn’t stop at our borders. It exports weapons, loopholes, and lawlessness. Our gun violence epidemic is becoming a global pandemic. Learn more about our work: actiononguns.org

Gun violence in the U.S. is a global outlier. But it is not inevitable. Countries like New Zealand have acted and ended the bloodshed. We can learn from the world and use tools like litigation to end gun violence. go.bsky.app/redirect?u=https…

It took New Zealand less than two weeks to tighten its gun laws after one mass shooting. Since 2015, the U.S. has suffered over 5,000 mass shootings. No action

Congratulations to @sanfordheisler, @BergerMontague, and @bradybuzz on their recent win on behalf of the City of Baltimore against Maryland’s largest ghost gun dealer. This is a significant milestone in gun violence prevention and a testament to the impact of legal expertise.🧵

GAGV previously filed the first amicus brief in U.S. Supreme Court that argues that U.S. gun policy and ghost guns causes harm to other nations, and those international effects should be considered. actiononguns.org/wp-content/…
