It has never been easier to make guns at home. Over 25,000 'ghost guns' -- guns that are unlicensed and unserialized -- were seized in 2022 alone. In most states, anyone who can use the internet can buy firearm-making kits cheaply online. These purchases can be made regardless of a person's age, mental health status, or criminal record. Yet only 13 states have regulated 'ghost guns.'
Sign now to demand all remaining 37 states close the 'ghost gun' loophole and protect our nation from more gun violence!Gun sellers, which increasingly resemble comic book supervillains, argue that they should be allowed to sell gun-making kits because they are technically not selling guns. But a person with little knowledge of these weapons of war can turn a purchased kit into a complete gun within a few hours following an online tutorial.
There were over 600 mass shootings in the U.S. in both 2021 and 2022, but it doesn't have to be this way. Common sense gun legislation could help us keep our children and our communities at large safe from needless gun violence.
Over half of U.S. states have not regulated ghost guns, and it is time each state passes comprehensive legislation before more tragedies occur. Sign the petition if you agree!
