Newtown Action Alliance is a national grassroots group formed after the Sandy Hook shooting to bring about legislative & cultural changes to #EndGunViolence.
We are proud to endorse @conniechansf.bsky.social for Congress CA-11! Connie has demonstrated a strong commitment to evidence-based solutions to prevent gun violence, including an Assault Weapons Ban and Ethan’s Law. Together, the freedom to live without fear.

Sandy and Lonnie deserved to have their day in court. Gun violence stole their daughter and PLCAA stole their future.
The judge immediately dismissed the case due to PLCAA then he ordered Sandy and Lonnie to pay $203,000 to Lucky Gunners for legal expenses -- which forced Sandy and Lonnie to file for bankruptcy.
Jessi's parents Sandy and Lonnie Phillips filed a lawsuit against Lucky Gunners, an online gun/ammo dealer because they thought it was outrageous that companies could sell a dangerous man an arsenal without getting any information about him.
In 2012, a gunman armed with an AR-15 and 100-round drum magazine killed 24-year-old Jessi and 11 others and injured 70 others (58 by gunfire) in the Aurora Movie Theater Shooting.
In Arkansas, a child found a loaded revolver on a desk and unintentionally shot and killed 7-year-old Everett Deaver. Call your Members of Congress at (202) 224-3121 and urge them to cosponsor Ethan’s Law to #KeepKidsSafe from unsecured guns. www.arkansasonline.com/news/2026/ju...
The Trump administration has dismantled federal gun violence prevention efforts such as cutting community violence prevention funding, gutting CDC research and eliminating the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/07/u...
No family should be left searching for answers after a fatal encounter with federal officers. Congress must ensure that justice is impartial, facts are fully examined, and the public can have confidence in the outcome.
Lorenzo Salgado Araujo is the 7th person to be fatally shot by ICE.

On the Fourth of July in 2022, a mass shooting at the Highland Park parade killed 7 people and wounded dozens more. For many families, Independence Day will never feel the same. #FreedomFromGunViolence
