Dear XXXX

Too many of Washington State's mothers and fathers have had their hearts broken by gun violence.

Often it's because our current laws say there's nothing we can do to get guns away from people who've shown dangerous behavior that poses a threat to themselves or others.

But there's a new bill that was just introduced in the state legislature that would let Washington families and law enforcement ask a judge to temporarily remove guns from someone who poses an extreme risk to themselves or others. It's up to us to make sure our lawmakers move this bill forward, without delay.

Immediate family members are often first to see warning signs that a loved one is in crisis and that it might be too dangerous to have a gun around -- but neither they nor law enforcement have the tools they need to cope with the crisis. And the result is often a tragic shooting incident.

Extreme Risk Protection Orders will give family members and law enforcement a way to try to keep their loved ones safe and prevent future tragedies.

Last year, volunteers and supporters like you helped pass a similar law in California in response to a shooting near UC Santa Barbara. In that case, the shooter's parents had tried hard to work with law enforcement and keep guns away from their son, but their hands were tied.

We need to make sure lawmakers know that the Extreme Risk Protection Order bill is a priority for Washington State's moms and dads.

They said they were not slowing their momentum after I594's passing, it's full steam ahead. Guns kill!!!!!!
This will be another nail in the coffin of our gun rights if we do not stand together and fight these monsters!!!

"But there's a new bill that was just introduced in the state legislature that would let Washington families and law enforcement ask a judge to temporarily remove guns from someone who poses an extreme risk to themselves or others." How about we turn in all the gangbangers, street thugs & convicted violent offenders that the prosecutors have put out on the streets because the jails and prisons are full!!!!!! Now there is a novel IDEA!!!!

This will morph into a SWATTING frenzy, anyone can call 911 and turn in gun owners and they will be subjected to prove to the man that they are not a threat...... A long battle will surely happen to clear your name.
Not good people!!!!:mad:
