A Temple University student was shot and killed last night near off-campus apartments after an altercation with another student.

Far too often, disputes turn fatal because of easy access to guns. This shouldn’t be normal.https://t.co/vzzlp2vafM

🚨President Trump quietly installed FBI Director Kash Patel as acting director of ATF.

He has no experience fighting crime, preventing mass shootings or stopping domestic terrorism. Patel will let the gun lobby walk all over him and American communities will pay the price. pic.twitter.com/pPm2Z1oZZC

Five years ago today, Ahmaud Arbery went for a jog and never came home. He was shot and killed by racist vigilantes who falsely claimed self-defense. He should still be here, and we will keep fighting for justice and change in his honor. pic.twitter.com/pb2DOmTAcO

Nearly 46,000 Americans die from gun violence every single year.

Gun violence IS a public health crisis, and Americans deserve a health secretary who will treat it as such. RFK Jr. is not the person for the job. Just look at how he answered questions that are an easy yes 👇 pic.twitter.com/GbK7jP11Uw

The US has a gun homicide rate 26x that of peer nations & a gun suicide rate nearly 12x that of peer nations. Guns are also the #1 killer of children and teens in this country. Gun violence is absolutely a public health crisis, and the head of the @HHSGov should treat it as such. pic.twitter.com/ZLS1W9yfcn

Tennessee doesn’t have:

❌Universal background checks
❌Gun owner licensing
❌Large capacity magazine ban
❌Waiting periods
❌Community violence intervention funding
❌Lost and stolen firearm reporting

These laws are proven to prevent gun violence. Antioch HS deserved better.
