Dinner for Democracy: Gun Violence Prevention

Session Is Over
-
Weill Hall (Ford School) - 1210 Turn Up Turnout

Note: this is an in-person event on the Ann Arbor campus.

Every year tens of thousands of people in the United States die from gun violence. The Second Amendment states, “A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” However, advocates for and against stricter gun policy have argued over the interpretation of the Second Amendment and to what extent the government can regulate firearms. Over the years, the federal and state governments have passed legislation in an attempt to address the problem of gun violence, but it remains an issue.

Join Turn Up Turnout for a nonpartisan, educational presentation on Gun Violence and the history of firearm policy in the United States. FREE FOOD provided.
