VICTORY!
President Signs Bill to Strengthen Brady Background Check System
Dear Bob,
The first major piece of national legislation to reduce gun violence in
more
than a decade was signed into law yesterday. Thank you for making this
success possible.
Momentum is on our side because of you. Please give a generous gift today
to mark this terrific progress and keep it going in 2008!

***********************
After the Virginia Tech tragedy, with your help and sup****t, we asked our
leaders, "What are YOU going to do about gun violence?" They responded.
This new law helps make it more difficult for dangerous people to get
their
hands on deadly weapons.
The Virginia Tech killer was able to arm himself because the court order
that should have blocked his gun purchase was not forwarded from the state
to the federal Brady background check system. This law will help ensure
that records like these don't fall through the cracks resulting in yet
another tragedy of lost lives.
Much more work lies ahead for your Brady Campaign. We will closely monitor
the implementation of the legislation to make sure that it is as effective
as it can be. And we continue our efforts to pass universal Brady
background
checks on all gun sales, including closing the gun show loophole.

***********************
We deeply appreciate the courage and strength of the Virginia Tech
families
who lost loved ones on April 16th or who were injured. Many of them signed
a
powerful letter to Congress and joined us on Capitol Hill on the
sixth-month
anniversary of those shootings calling for the passage of this
legislation.
The efforts of all the families involved were critical to this victory.
Our special thanks go out to Representative Carolyn McCarthy and Senators
Charles Schumer and Edward Kennedy for their leader****p on this
legislation.
Thank you again for your sup****t and commitment to making America safe.
Happy New Year! We've gotten off to a great start.
Sincerely,
Sarah Brady, Chair
Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence
