This is breaking news.
President Biden and Vice President Harris just announced an Executive Order to improve school-based active shooter drills and combat the emerging threats of machinegun conversion devices and unserialized, 3D-printed firearms, as well as additional executive actions to reduce gun violence and save lives.
Here are just some of the strong steps forward in the new Executive Order:
- Combating machinegun conversion devices and unserialized, 3D-printed firearms.
- Emphasizing safe storage in schools by providing schools, school boards, and policymakers with a new tool to promote safe gun storage in their communities.
- Improving school-based active shooter drills by appointing experts to develop and publish information for K-12 schools and higher education institutions.
- Establishing an Emerging Firearms Threats Task Force, consisting of leadership from key federal departments and agencies.
- Providing an additional $85 million in funding through the Community Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative.
- Publishing additional data on ghost gun trends and firearms trafficking.
- Facilitating voluntary out-of-home storage to prevent firearm suicide.
- And more!
These are the types of investments we need in our schools and communities to help eradicate gun violence once and for all. But this is just a start, Kendall. Keeping our momentum going looks like getting out the vote, continuing to mobilize youth around the country, and electing Kamala Harris — a candidate who is willing to prioritize gun safety.

Your Personal Invite To the Movement Fund 💌💙
At March For Our Lives, we call our monthly supporter program The Movement Fund.
Why are monthly recurring donors so important? The amount of one-time individual donations we receive as an organization varies vastly from month to month.
Without a steady stream of monthly donations coming in our door, it would be impossible to accurately plan our budgets, create long-term strategies to win a future free from gun violence, plan and execute on-the-ground organizing efforts, recruit and train more gun safety champions, and more.
One of the best ways that you can help sustain our movement is by becoming a recurring monthly donor. Can you sign up today?
