I am proud that my campaign has been awarded the Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate distinction based on my positions around gun violence prevention. Massachusetts has the lowest rate of gun violence in the country, thanks in large part to our position as a national leader in common-sense gun laws (see rankings).
