Last year I was invited to The White House to introduce @POTUS . I wish I was invited for winning a spelling bee, or my GPA. I was invited because I was SHOT at school & I now push every day for a safer America. Fight for the things you believe in, the good people WILL listen.

The shooter at my school who shot me & 4 others was a student, he was liked, a boyscout, with friends 1) no teacher could have done this 2) no teacher should be asked to do this 3) shot us in 8 seconds, would have taken minutes to figure out what was happening. ITS THE GUNS!

After the shooting at my high school Trump did the same. Told his supporters at a rally to not worry, he’ll protect their guns. He never mentioned the shooting that happened hours earlier.

Tonight, to a crowd of NRA members, Trump bragged about having done nothing to curb gun violence, even after horrific mass shootings in Parkland, El Paso, and Dayton. He cannot be trusted with the lives and safety of our communities.

NEW: I’m proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution to help end our nation’s gun violence crisis. The American people are sick of Congress’ inaction. The 28th will enshrine 4 widely supported gun safety freedoms -- while leaving the 2nd Amendment intact: 1)

We lock up our cleaning supplies, pain meds, & put fences around our pools, all to keep children safe. This should NOT be a question. Want a firearm? Fine, be a RESPONSIBLE gun owner & store it safely. This is not hard. #EthansLaw #BeSmart #Safestorage

My heart is with Miah Cerrillo today. While being a survivor is hard- being an activist is harder; however we all know this work MUST be done. I commend everyone today on Capitol Hill for their courage to stand up for this cause! #StudentsDemandAction #EverytownForGunSaftey

Last time we banned assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, it worked. I know progress is hard. But we’ve done it before, and we can do it again. It’s time.

Sitting at DMV to take my permit test, again. Why? Because they want to make sure I don’t drive and kill somebody. The same precautions should go for gun ownership. Training, tests, registration, insurance, med clearance, permit, renewal, and if you can’t pass…YOU DONT GET ONE!

@SenTedCruz I guess the .45 caliber bullet scar from a GHOST GUN I have on my abdomen is false too? What about my best friend murdered by one. Here I thought you were supposed to be pro-life? Now thats false narrative.

I was shot with a ghost gun. My best friend shot & killed by one. If it looks like a gun, shoots like a gun, & kills like a gun it should be regulated as such. If you can’t pass a background check…YOU shouldn’t have a GUN! #GVP #Ghostguns #everytownforgunsafety

This ruling will allow our common-sense gun laws to remain in place while we appeal the district court’s dangerous ruling. Californians overwhelmingly support efforts to ensure that places like hospitals, libraries and children’s playgrounds remain safe and free from guns.
