Our Thoughts on Guns and Health are Pretty simple...

We can summarize this "complex" topic in just a few charts and words: guns are the leading cause of death among American children. 

Yup, more than cars, drugs, cancer: 

What's worse: guns have been killing more children in their schools. This trend is not a blip, it is accelerating. 

Guns also kill at home, at church, at the mall .... really, anywhere that people are. This country is absolutely awash in firearms. They are plentiful, they are lightly regulated, they are easy to get. And they can be powerful. 

We need to work to either track or regulate firearms -- at the least. 

But, hey, nothing happened after 27 children were killed at Sandy Hook. So say we don't want to do ANYTHING legislatively, about guns:

In a state like Iowa, little has been done to improve our overall health system. Even less to help our mental healthy system!

If our elected officials love guns, but also love kids, and blame gun deaths on mental health, where is the urgency in health care reform?

This is insane. We say enough, and we work for change. 

We have donated every year for politicians and PACs that support gun control or health care expansion. We will keep showing up to help our communities do better.

But we do have a shirt for you:
