The RTM finally listened and voted to approve the resolution. We forced their hand and won this fight for public safety. Stay alert because the real work of holding these politicians accountable starts now.

Final supporters
We, the undersigned, in the interest of public health and the safety of our families, request the Westport RTM to vote in favor of the following Sense of the Meeting Resolution.
WE, THE MEMBERS OF THE WESTPORT REPRESENTATIVE TOWN MEETING, support gun control legislation in the United States and urge the President and federal legislators, as well as Connecticut state legislators, to enact a ban on automatic and semi-automatic assault weapons and high-capacity magazine clips. Furthermore, we support closing the "gun-show loophole" that allows people to buy guns at trade shows and from private dealers without background checks.

We just hit 100 signatures and the RTM needs to pay attention. This shows them that Westport is sick of the inaction surrounding these dangerous weapons.

WESTPORT NEEDS TO SHOW UP FOR THIS. WE CANT JUST WAIT FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO FIX IT
So tired of seeing this happen over and over. Please take some action.
Enough is enough. My kids deserve to feel safe at school and in their own town.
Common sense laws are long overdue. Do the right thing Westport.
Finally someone is pushing for change here. keep it going.
