I support SB225 and think that schools should notify parents and remind them of their responsibilities to safely store firearms. Research from a 2019 study shows that 1 and 3 youth suicides and unintentional deaths can be prevented by securely storing guns. I support SB484 and programs that help prevent violence in our communities.

As a member of Virginia Moms for Change, a gun violence prevention organization, I support sb484 as community violence prevention programs are essential in the fight to end gun violence.
