For instance, we’ve argued for stricter gun laws — including stronger background checks, restrictions based on age and mental health, and a ban on high-capacity magazine clips. We’ve backed Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar’s call to kick-start federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention research to find the best ways to curb gun violence. We’ve promoted programs that help young people avoid being victims or perpetrators of gun violence by staying in school, getting a good start on their careers and succeeding in life. As the saying goes, nothing stops a bullet like a job.
