No one is free from gun violence in PA
until we’re all safe.
Every five hours a Pennsylvanian dies from gun violence on average. Here is how we can end this devastation.
Common Agenda to End Gun Violence
The Common Agenda brings together more than 130 organizations to advocate for solutions that will save lives.
Invest in Safer Communities
Our campaign advocates for funding at each level of government to support these violence prevention and intervention efforts.
Reporting Lost or Stolen Firearms
Simply requiring owners to report stolen firearms could slow illegal firearm trafficking. Pennsylvania doesn’t require it–yet.
Extreme Risk Protection Orders
Most people provide clear warning signs they are considering suicide. With an ERPO, loved ones can act before it’s too late.
Universal Background Checks
27,000 Pennsylvanians whose background checks were denied in 2020 could still buy an assault rifle from an individual. We must close this loophole.”
Defending Gun Safety Laws
Our gun safety laws are saving lives every day. We’re standing between them and the NRA who wants to dismantle each of them.
Additional Issues
Empowering Local Government
Every day local officials face their constituents demanding an end to gun violence.
Ending Stand Your Ground
Stand your ground allows people to shoot first, even when they can retreat safely. It’s time to end this deadly law.
Safe Storage
Ensuring every gun is secured could prevent suicide and mass shootings.
Next Steps
Disarming Abusers
Guns make domestic violence more fatal. We came together to disarm known abusers.
