#OutShoutTheGunLobby! Tweet for accountability for gun manufacturers!

13 April 2016

A coalition of gun violence prevention groups are delivering over 200,000 signatures to Congress today, calling on our lawmakers to repeal the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), the law that gives gun manufacturers and gun dealers blanket immunity from lawsuits, even when they provide or sell weapons to people who they know will likely use them in a crime.

You can join the mass movement of Americans seeking repeal of the PLCAA by tweeting the sample messages below! If you live in one of the states listed, click the link for your state to tweet a message tailored for your Senator(s). If you don't live in one of the states listed, you can still get in on the action by tweeting the messages in the first section below!
