Subject: It Hasn't Been This Good In Awhile

We Won, the NRA Lost, Now Let's Get Busy


Dear *****,

Jim and I couldn't be more pleased and proud of what you helped make happen this week. We have a tremendous opportunity with our new leaders.

I can tell you: it hasn't been this good for quite a while!

The NRA is reeling from their election defeats. They lost in states where they spent millions on ad campaigns and endorsements. Now they are quickly re-building their war chest to fight us all the way.

You know me as a do-er. I like to make things happen — especially when it results in saving lives. And as much as I want to breathe a sigh of relief after this week's election, we need to get busy.

Please help with an immediate donation
to the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.
I don't want to lose any time getting the new Congress and the White House to move our life-saving agenda forward. Click here to donate.

I want our newly elected officials to hit the ground running as much as you do. We need the new Congress to close the gun show loophole, enact a comprehensive assault weapons ban, and stop illegal gun trafficking.

We can't wait another moment to get started on the tough work ahead.

We have many allies in Congress. More than 91 percent of Brady-endorsed candidates won their races. And President-elect Obama and Vice President-elect Biden are strong and consistent supporters of common sense gun measures.

But they need to hear from the Brady Campaign right now. Please contribute to the Brady Campaign to make sensible gun laws a top priority in this new Administration.

Sincerely,

Sarah Brady, Chair

P.S. The Brady Campaign has so many allies in Congress now. Please donate today to help move quickly to pass sensible gun laws.

Everyone write your senators and congessmen! Tell them no new gun laws, instead try enforcing the ones we have better, and keeping dangerous criminals in jail longer!

stop illegal gun trafficking.

Is this an oxymoron or what?
If it's already happening illegaly, how will more laws stop it? Wouldn't it make more sense to increase police patrols, or something like that?
