Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America announced today that it is launching a campaign to demand that Starbucks ban guns from its stores nationwide. The company currently allows patrons to bring loaded firearms into their stores in states where public carrying is permitted.
Moms Demand Action is asking its members to demand that Starbucks change its policy on firearms through a petition that will be hand-delivered to Starbucks; reaching out to CEO Howard Schultz through emails and Tweets; writing letters to the editor of local papers to educate moms in their communities about Starbucks’ gun policies; and pressuring the company through social media (tinyurl.com/coffeewithgunsense).
