Life Science Cares deplores the rise of mass shootings throughout the nation. We must do more to prevent continued and senseless loss of lives in public spaces, including schools. We have put these resources together as a way to empower our community to do something meaningful against the rise of mass shootings. We stand with the people of Uvalde, Buffalo, Tulsa, Ames, Charleston, Philadelphia, Chattanooga, Phoenix, Saginaw, Summerton, and all communities suffering the impacts of gun violence.

We recognize and applaud the industry leaders using their voices to advocate for change, including the authors of this Biomedical Community’s Petition to Stop Gun Violence. In the words of the authors, “If this were a disease, our industry would be tackling it by developing new medicines. But as fellow Americans and parents, as a group that employs hundreds of thousands of people, and as a group that is positioned to support political candidates that take public health issues seriously, we ask our legislators to act now.” We encourage our network to continue to sign on to the petition and show broad industry support for bipartisan reforms.
