For far too long, politicians who are bought-and-sold by the NRA and gun manufacturers have controlled the agenda on gun safety. We have had to endure years of inaction as our communities suffer every day from senseless, preventable violence. I pledge to support a suite of reforms that make historic progress on curbing gun violence in Virginia. These reforms include:
 

• Universal, mandatory background checks on all firearm purchases
   

• A ban on assault-style weapons that are frequently used in mass murders
   

• Red Flag laws that can stop shootings before they happen
   

• A ban on high capacity magazines, bump stocks, and silencers
   

• Meaningful waiting periods for firearm purchases
   

• Child Access Prevention mandates that can reduce accidental deaths
