As NYT reports, the Trump administration has initiated efforts to dismantle critical gun control regulations established in recent years.

This includes “zero tolerance” policy, put in place four years ago, that strips the federal licenses of firearms dealers found to have repeatedly violated federal laws and regulations, NYT writes.

Additionally, Attorney General Pam Bondi has taken steps to review bans on so-called pistol braces used to convert handguns into rifle-like weapons, and the second is a rule requiring background checks on private gun sales.

This is very dangerous. As Scientific American writes: guns kill more children each year than auto accidents.

"More children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active military members. Guns are a public health crisis."

Rolling back these measures compromises the safety of our schools, places of worship, and public spaces. It disregards the voices of countless Americans who have advocated for sensible gun laws to protect their families and communities.

We call on the Trump administration to halt the rollback of essential gun control measures and to maintain policies that have been instrumental in reducing gun violence.

Stand with us in urging the administration to prioritize the well-being of all citizens by upholding effective gun control measures.
