The assassination attempt on Jim Brady, President Reagan’s press secretary, and the steadfast resolve of his wife, Sarah, ignited a movement that forever changed the fight against gun violence. Their personal sacrifice and leadership became the very heartbeat of our cause. 

It is in their enduring legacy that Brady PAC was formed, leading up to the 2018 midterm elections, as an essential counterweight to the insidious dark money Super PACs unleashed by the gun industry. Supporting Brady PAC is essential because it directly combats the outsized influence of the gun industry, and places the focus of political candidates back on saving lives.

We stand on the shoulders of the giant of this movement, proudly upholding the policy ideals championed by our sister organization, Brady.

We exist to elect leaders at every level of government – local, state, and federal – who share our determination to build a safer America. These are the champions who will enact and relentlessly defend life-saving, common-sense gun safety policies, including universal background checks, reenactment of the assault weapons ban, and implementation of extreme risk protection orders, among others. We fight tirelessly so that no family has to endure the heartbreak that Jim and Sarah knew, and so that our homes, our schools, and our communities can finally be free from the pain of gun violence.
