Dear Leaguers,
The gun reform bill that the Florida Legislature has sent Governor Rick Scott ignores many demands of Parkland students, and even worse, it still arms teachers and other school personnel. But our fight isn’t over. You can call Governor Scott and tell him to veto the funding for the Guardian Program that puts more guns in our classrooms!
The Florida Coalition to Prevent Gun Violence understands the call to DO SOMETHING. Our Legislature chose to NOT DO ENOUGH. The bill is not an important first step; it is the least the NRA would allow. Now it’s Governor Scott’s responsibility to pull back the funding in the budget to arm teachers and other school personnel through the Guardian Program. Call (850) 717-9337 now, and tell Governor Scott to NOT fund the Guardian Program!
Please share this call to action so we can make schools safer for every student.
Thank you,
