Brady Campaign From their website:
"In getting the bipartisan Brady Law passed in 1993, Jim and Sarah Brady accomplished the inconceivable. But there's more work to be done — and only when we work together will we solve this problem. In order to do that work, we must accept these three truths about America's gun violence epidemic: 1) Gun ownership demands responsibility; 2) Those empowered to do so must uphold existing gun laws; and 3) Gun violence is a uniquely American problem that impacts all races and ethnicities in the country, but nonetheless exacts a particular toll on Black and Brown communities."
"It's time we unite people of all races and ethnicities from coast to coast, progressive and conservative, young and old, fed up and fired up, to work with us and end what is taking so many lives. It's in our hands."

Everytown for Gun Safety From their website:
"Gun violence touches every town in America. For too long, life-saving laws have been thwarted by the gun lobby and by leaders who refuse to take common-sense steps that will save lives. But something is changing. Nearly 10 million mayors, moms, teachers, survivors, gun owners, students, and everyday Americans have come together to make their own communities safer. Everytown starts with you, and it starts in your neighborhood. By introducing evidence-based solutions in every town, we can end gun violence."

Giffords From their website:
"Our country is in the grip of a gun violence epidemic. Every American will know a victim of gun violence in their lifetime—this is not normal, and it doesn't have to be this way.
Giffords is fighting to end the gun lobby's stranglehold on our political system. We're daring to dream what a future free from gun violence looks like. We're going to end this crisis, and we're going to do it together."

Grandparents for Gun Safety, Stand with Us! From their website:
"Grandparents for Gun Safety... was founded in 2013, in the wake of the lack of Congressional action following the Sandy Hook shooting that claimed 27 victims, 20 of them children. Since the very beginning, we have emphasized education, safety and the need for common ground gun reform, including universal background checks, waiting periods for gun purchases and other reforms to reduce the danger of gun violence."

Here 4 the Kids From their website:
"The Here 4 the Kids movement calls on Colorado Governor Jared Polis to sign an Executive Order to ban guns and implement a statewide buyback program. To achieve this goal, we are organizing a sit-in of 25,000+ white women from around the country on Monday, June 5, at 5am in Denver, Colorado.
Our movement is led by Black, brown, indigenous, women of color and honors the six hundred Black civil rights leaders and peaceful demonstrators who began their journey from Selma to Montgomery in 1965 and their sacrifice and efforts, which led to The Voting Rights Act of 1965.
We respectfully ask white women to put their bodies on the ground as marginalized communities have always done and continue to do. As we prioritize the safety of historically marginalized and vulnerable populations such as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, non-citizens, and disabled folks whose bodies are often on the front lines fighting for human and civil rights, we invite white women to take part in this act of civil disobedience.
As we cannot guarantee ADA-compliant access and/or safety on the ground, we are encouraging people from marginalized and vulnerable communities to join the remote campaign"
