One Million Moms for Gun Control

One Million Moms for Gun Control - 1MM4GC- is a grassroots effort formed in the wake of the devastating mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown Connecticut.

Horrified and heartbroken by the events in Sandy Hook, mothers of the United States are coming together to fight for tougher gun control measures. The group’s founder is Indiana mother of five Shannon Watts. Now thousands of moms have joined her. We’re growing by the day with more members and dozens of state and local chapters.

One Million Moms for Gun Control was founded to demand action NOW to:


1) Reinstate the ban on assault weapons and related magazines.
2) Close gun-show loopholes that encourage private gun sales without background checks.
3) Set boundaries on how much ammunition a person can purchase.
4) Limit the scope of concealed weapons laws at the state level.
