Corporate Statement on Gun Control

It’s been six years since the Sandy Hook massacre, and Congress still hasn’t done a thing.

El Paso. Dayton. Gilroy. Santa Fe, TX. Parkland. Sutherland Springs. Las Vegas. Sandy Hook. Columbine. Aurora. Virginia Tech. How many more innocent victims must die at the hands of an antiquated and oft-misinterpreted amendment?

Enough. It's time to say that thoughts and prayers are no longer enough in the face of gun-related tragedies. We need meaningful action.

We need commonsense gun control now, including the following:

• Ban civilian ownership of weapons designed for warfare, including assault weapons.
• Close the gun show loophole.
• Limit high capacity ammunition magazines.
• Create certificates of ownership for firearms, similar to automobiles, which should be governed by similar regulations, including the need for training, testing, and insurance.
• Strengthening Background Checks.

Cluny Sisters join their voices with the multiple of citizens for Common Sense Gun Control.  Join us and others making known your stance regarding this epidemic of violence in our country.  In addition to our prayers and solidarity with the victims and communities shattered by this violence, we need to ACT.
