Don’t ever let anyone tell you advocacy doesn’t work…

Senator Gary Peters (D-MI) has signed on to be a co-sponsor of S.736

#PassTheBan #ThisisOurLane

Question of the day…
Why do senators hire staff that aren’t even from their home state?
It’s maddening!

Dr. Guerrero just walked by.
All the oxygen just left the room I’m standing in…

Part of being an effective physician is being an advocate for your patients everywhere you go.
Today it’s with March Fourth in Washington, D.C.
#PasstheBan #ThisisOurLane

The physician group March Fourth was formed 5 months ago today, and today 50 physicians from across the United States have arrived in Washington, D.C. to lobby our senators to #PasstheBan #ThisisOurLane

Pretty special evening tonight at Brady. Thrilled to have the opportunity to meet Mr. Fred Guttenberg.

As physicians, we forget how powerful are voices are, especially when we speak as one.

Had the opportunity, through March Fourth, to speak with a senate staffer today about the types of gun violence we routinely see in our communities. He was almost in tears when we were done. If only we could get 60 senators on board.

Thought of the day…

My father died frustrated that he couldn’t change the world. I guess that’s why he had me.

Quote of the day from a family member back in Iowa…

“I’m a 100% conservative, but I don’t know anyone who is in favor of assault weapons around here. You would have to be out of your mind.”

@PeggyJoan
Thank you for following!
I’m asking everyone who cares about our children, teachers, and the safety of our communities to call their senators in support of the Assault Weapons Ban S.736 🙏

#ThisisOurLane #PassTheBan

I just got off a call about the assault weapons bill. We are gaining significant momentum. Please call your Senators and ask them to help #PassTheBan

For the sake of our child team,
It doesn’t mean we don’t try.
