3 people were killed & 9 others were injured in a mass shooting in Philadelphia. This tragedy comes amid a violent July 4th weekend that left 6 people dead citywide. We don’t need more patrols. We need prevention.

Another violent holiday weekend across the U.S. The federal government is pulling resources that could prevent the next one:.❌CVI grants = gone.❌Medicaid = slashed.❌Gun safety protections = gutted. Disinvestment has consequences & our communities pay the price.

One year ago, Sonya Massey called 911 for help during a mental health crisis. She was shot and killed by a sheriff’s deputy in her own home. Sonya should still be here. We remember her and demand care, not force, in moments of crisis.

Nine years ago, Alton Sterling was killed by police outside a convenience store in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. A father, a brother, a friend — Alton was a man who deserved to live. Today, we remember him and all the Black lives stolen by police violence.

Congress passed a tax bill that guts nearly $1T from Medicaid, and it’s heading to Trump’s desk. This will devastate care for millions, including funding for CVI programs that prevent gun violence & support survivors. We need care, healing, and community investment.

4 people were killed and 14 more wounded in a drive-by mass shooting in Chicago last night, now considered worst mass shooting downtown since 2022. Our communities deserve more than reactive outrage. They deserve safety, healing, and care — every day.

The Senate narrowly passed the Trump-backed “One Big Beautiful Bill,” slashing nearly $1T from Medicaid that puts millions at risk. We condemn this bill, and we urge the House to reject this harmful legislation and protect funding for CVI programs that actually keep us safe.

NY just became the first state to codify & fund a permanent OGVP since the WHOGVP’s closure 🧡 — stepping up with dedicated infrastructure. Shoutout to our Deputy Director of Legislative Advocacy, Tarria Stanley, for her tireless work alongside partners to help make this happen.

BREAKING: The Break the Cycle of Violence Act is here. Led by @RepHorsford + @SenBooker, this bill would invest $5B in CVI + $1.5B in youth workforce development — the largest federal investment in community-led safety to date. We proudly support it.🧡

3 years ago, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act became law — the most significant gun safety legislation in over 30 years, allocating $15B in funding for CVI programs. We’re proud to have helped push it over the finish line. Let’s protect CVI funding and keep building. 🧡

$2M for CVI in Texas. A MAJOR win. Thanks to strong advocacy, coalition work, and leadership from groups like ATX Peace, the State Legislature has allocated $2M to support CVI programs across the state. Let’s keep funding real solutions. 🧡. #txlege

Juneteenth is a reminder that justice has always been delayed for Black communities, & that freedom has always been fought for, not freely given. Today, we honor our ancestors & celebrate resilience. We recommit to the work of liberation — not just in memory, but in action.

10 years ago, a white supremacist entered Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, SC, & stole nine lives. They were pillars of their families & communities. Their lives mattered. We honor them by continuing to fight white supremacy & building a world rooted in justice, and equality.

Last year, during a Juneteenth Festival in Round Rock, TX, violence shattered a day meant to celebrate Black freedom & resilience. Two precious lives were taken from their families & community. We honor the families & survivors as they continue to navigate unimaginable loss.

“All things considered, it certainly could have gone worse.” — Adzi Vokhiwa, VP of Policy . SCOTUS didn’t gut gun safety laws this term — and that matters. ✅ Ghost gun regs upheld.✅ No blanket immunity for gun makers.✅ Assault weapon bans left intact. Small wins. High stakes.
