Thank you to @GabbyGiffords and @GiffordsCourage for uplifting #CommunityViolenceIntervention as a crucial strategy for treating violence like the public health crisis that it is.
We know the funds from #CalVIP will help make #Oakland a safer place to live. twitter.com/GabbyGiffords/…

Violence intervention leaders do not get the credit they deserve. They’re known as peacekeepers, violence interrupters, but to me, they’re heroes.
They put their lives on the line to save others from gun violence in California. I'm incredibly grateful for all they do. #CalVIP
I trust women, not politicians, to make decisions about their own health care.
I'll always work to protect a woman’s right to choose, which is why I’m a cosponsor of the Women’s Health Protection Act.

Today is the last day to visit our San Francisco Gun Violence Memorial—but we will never stop fighting to #EndGunViolence.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords 
We gathered in San Francisco to honor victims of gun violence, surrounded by 3,449 flower vases and courageous survivors who turned pain into action.
Together, we will build a future where we don’t need vigils and memorials like these.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords 
Mayors get the phone calls when there’s been a shooting. They hug the mothers who will never see their kids again.
Inaction is not an option.
Thank you Mayor @LondonBreed for meeting me at our San Francisco Gun Violence Memorial & for your leadership in preventing gun violence.
Our country needs more courageous leaders like Rep. Bee Nguyen, who has shown up and fought to safeguard our democracy and our freedoms.
Congratulations, @BeeForGeorgia. Strong women get things done! #WeAreEMILY @emilyslist twitter.com/beeforgeorgia/…
Our San Francisco Gun Violence Memorial is now on display at Sue Bierman Park. You can visit through Friday. #CourageToAct twitter.com/GiffordsCourag…
Every time I see these memorials, my heart is heavy. There are too many flowers, too many gun deaths, too many shootings.
But I have not lost hope. We must move forward and continue the fight to #EndGunViolence.
Gun violence has inflicted so much pain on our communities here in San Francisco and around the country. Thank you to former Congresswoman @GabbyGiffords, for helping to push forward a movement that honors the lives lost to gun violence and represents hope for a better future.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Tonight, with @GabbyGiffords and @GiffordsCourage, we paid tribute to the lives of the 3,449 Californians who died from gun violence in 2020.
California mourns all of these lives taken from us far too soon.
But as we mourn, we must also call for the courage to act.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords .@ValHoyle is a dedicated public servant who has fought fiercely for the safety of Oregonians throughout her career.
I've been honored to work hand-in-hand with Val over the years to make meaningful change, and I know she will continue to be an effective partner in Congress. twitter.com/GiffordsCourag…
.@GabbyGiffords presents, via video, the Rising Star Award to the incredible @BeeForGeorgia. #WeAreEMILY “America needs us all to speak out.”
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords .@BeeForGeorgia arrives to accept the @GabbyGiffords Rising Star Award. "I know the ability to make choices for ourselves in our lives is at the center of our fight for reproductive rights."
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords I’m grateful for Bee, and for all the advocates and activists who are resisting the dismantling of our rights.
The fight for freedom and bodily autonomy is a long and challenging one, but I’m glad to be on the side of these strong women getting things done. #WeAreEMILY
I’m no stranger to a tough fight—and neither are my friends at @emilyslist. It’s never been more important to elect pro-choice women than it is right now.
Tonight, Emily’s List is honoring @BeeForGeorgia with their 2022 Gabrielle Giffords Rising Star Award.
Women must have the right to make their own choices about abortion and when to start a family. I’m outraged that those rights could be on the verge of elimination.
It's beyond clear we need more elected leaders committed to reproductive freedom.
Our San Francisco memorial honors the 3,449 Californians killed by gun violence in 2020.
It holds space for all 3,449 families who will never be the same.
And it sends a message to the US Senate: No more thoughts and prayers. We need action.

Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords I’m thinking of my dad today on his birthday ❤️. My first job was working at his tire business in Tucson. He taught me the value of hard work—and a good joke.
I miss and love him every day that goes by, but I'm so grateful for all the birthdays that we had together.
There are so many things that make Tucson special and being home to the band Calexico is at the top of the list. I’ve been singing along to their new album “El Mirador” on repeat. Congrats on the album and good luck on tour, @casadecalexico! ❤️
Gun safety is a winning issue in Florida—and our first ever state director @samibarrios will lead the charge for change.
It's time to replace Senator Marco Rubio with @valdemings, a leader who has the true #CourageToAct in the face of gun violence.

Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords I was elected to Congress the same time as Rep. Giffords and enjoyed working with her in the House. Watching her build a movement to end gun violence in America has been inspiring.
Proud to be endorsed by Giffords and determined to fight for gun violence prevention in the Senate. twitter.com/GiffordsCourag…
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords I'm proud to endorse @WelchForVT for Senate in Vermont!
In 2016, Rep. Welch joined a sit-in on the House floor to demand gun reform when House leadership was silent after the shooting at the Pulse Nightclub.
I know he'll show that same leadership & courage in the Senate. twitter.com/GiffordsCourag…

Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords I work with my colleagues in law enforcement every day to fight gun violence, get illegal guns off our streets, and close the ghost gun loophole.
Everyone deserves to feel safe in their community. Honored to work with @GabbyGiffords and @GiffordsCourage to make it our reality.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords For the first time, guns have overtaken motor vehicles as the top cause of death for children and teens.
It doesn’t have to be this way.

Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Happy birthday, @CoryBooker! Thank you for your leadership and dedication to keep communities safe from gun violence in New Jersey and across the country.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Three years ago today, a gunman entered Chabad of Poway synagogue, killed Lori Gilbert-Kaye, and injured three more people.
We must honor them with action until guns no longer fall into hateful hands and all houses of worship are safe. #DisarmHate #HonorWithAction
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Senator @brianschatz has always prioritized his constituents’ safety—from his support of gun safety reforms to his courage to defy the gun lobby.
I am proud to support Senator Schatz for reelection to the Senate, where he will keep building a safer Hawaii for future generations. twitter.com/GiffordsCourag…
Happy birthday to Coretta Scott King—civil rights leader, peace advocate, survivor, wife and mother.
We must continue to carry on her legacy fighting for peace, justice, and equity. #CelebratingCoretta

Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Little league baseball should be about teammates, pizza after games, and having fun.
Not about guns and hiding from bullets.
Our children deserve better. Period. twitter.com/ABCNews4/statu…
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Governor @gretchenwhitmer has led Michigan through tough times. In response to tragedy, she’s offered compassion and leadership. In response to threats, she has exhibited great courage.
I am proud to back a strong and tested leader who works tirelessly to put Michiganders first. twitter.com/GiffordsCourag…
Our Gun Violence Memorial is coming to San Francisco from May 2-6.
San Francisco is home to Giffords Law Center—and to the 101 California Street shooting that killed 8 people. GLC was founded in the wake of the attack, and we continue to #HonorWithAction.

Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords It's a full circle moment!
Our current class of #CourageFellows got to hear from former fellows who are now working in the movement to #EndGunViolence about building a career in advocacy.
This fight takes all of us, and our youth are leading the charge.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Our #CourageFellows are in DC for the first time since 2019 📣 !
Today, they heard from Gun Owner for Safety@BioTeachSciLovrr, and@MamaRedfieldd and@PapaRedfieldd with@SurvivorsTour222 on the importance of bringing together different voices to create change.S
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Four years ago today, a gunman shot and killed four people and injured four more at a Waffle House in Nashville, TN.
The shooter got a gun despite being barred from having one. Our gun laws failed those four people and their loved ones. We must do more to #HonorWithAction.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords I Miss You Today Just As Much As I Did On 4/22/2018. It Hurts Just As Much Today As It Did On 4/22/2018 When They Said You Didn’t Make It! 😢💔🙏ZI3JX
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords 4 years ago today, Shaundelle Brooks’s son Akilah was shot and killed along with three other innocent people at a Waffle House in Nashville. My heart goes out to every family who lost a loved one that day. I know a safer future is possible, and I will never stop fighting for it.
I am honored to be endorsed by @GiffordsCourage.
We all deserve safe communities, and I'm proud to stand alongside Giffords in supporting gun safety legislation.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords In the greatest country on earth, we can never accept the number of lives lost or changed forever due to gun violence. I'm honored to be endorsed by @GiffordsCourage and will keep working to reduce gun violence while respecting the constitutional rights of law-abiding gun owners.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Every single one of these candidates is a proven gun safety champion.
In 2018, they secured a new gun safety majority and brought renewed energy to the fight against gun violence. I am proud to back these courageous leaders who are passionate about saving lives. twitter.com/GiffordsCourag…
The ATF is currently at the beck and call of the gun industry—you know, the industry it’s supposed to regulate.
It needs strong leadership.
@POTUS' appointment of a new interim director can immediately address our gun violence crisis.

Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords "Art can be an incredibly effective way of making a difference...You are creating lasting, impactful change with your work, and I couldn’t be more proud." Thank you @GabbyGiffords for your incredibly thoughtful letter congratulating this year's #ENOUGH playwrights!
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Tiffany Wiggins was shot and killed this weekend in DC. She was a mother, grandmother, and, after her brother was shot and killed, she worked as a violence interrupter.
Thank you Tiffany for your courage & dedication to make your community a better place.

Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords I'm so excited to meet @GiffordsCourage’s newest class of #CourageFellows!
These young people have shown inspiring leadership, and we're amplifying their calls for change. Like so many Americans, they know that gun violence prevention is a fight their generation will win.
It’s hard to believe it’s been 23 years since the shooting at Columbine High School. It was then the worst school shooting our country had ever seen—we’ve had too many worsts since.
Today and always, my heart is with Littleton. I will never stop fighting for a safer future.
23 years ago today, 12 students and a teacher were shot and killed at Columbine High School.
It was the deadliest school shooting in US history, but now, school shootings are worse and active shooter drills are the norm. We must never stop fighting for our children's safety.
Retweeted by Gabrielle Giffords Big news! I'm so excited for everyone to see this film from @FilmmakerJulie and @Betsywest.
Coming soon to a theater near you this summer 🍿.deadline.com/2022/04/gabby-…7
