Hello, my name is [your name<\/em>]. I am a constituent from [state, city, zip code<\/em>]. May I speak with Senator [your senator’s name<\/em>]? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After you reach a staff member or voicemail from your senator’s office: <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hello, my name is [your<\/em> name] and I am calling as a concerned constituent. An average of 100 Americans are shot every day and 44% of American adults know someone who has been shot.The current federal background check law is not \u201cuniversal\u201d because it has loopholes for gun shows, non-licensed dealers, and does not address domestic and intimate partner violence or access to firearms for those on the terrorist watch list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am concerned about background checks in this country and urge Senator [your senator’s name] <\/em>to take bipartisan action. Thank you for your time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
