Issues that the Organizations are Involved in

The VPC is adamantly involved in the D.C handgun ban which has recently been overturned. They are syaing that now more than ever, as handguns are evolving, it is important to regulate if not ban the sale of all handguns. Their main argument is that handguns are more suitable for killing than they are for self-defense.

The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence has organized to honor those who died at Virginia Tech during the shooting on the anniversary of the shooting. They are calling on congress to fix the problem of gun violence, saying "There are too many gun violence victims — and there is something we can do about it. Close the gun show loophole"

The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence is focusing on the gun show loophole that exists in many states. The loophole, as they put it on their website is that in 35 states you can buy a handgun at a gun show without a background check.
