Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick knows how to reach across the aisle to work towards life-saving solutions to the gun violence epidemic. Rep. Fitzpatrick was an original cosponsor of legislation to strengthen the Brady Background Check System, and he voted in favor of legislation to close the deadly Charleston loophole has consistently championed gun violence prevention measures to protect Pennsylvania communities.
After the school shooting in Parkland, FL, in 2018 Rep. Fitzpatrick said:
As we pray as a nation for all the victims and families devastated by the Parkland school shooting, we must not allow yet another tragedy to go unanswered. It is incumbent upon all of us to identify the root causes of this senseless violence and move to address it immediately.
Since then Rep. Fitzpatrick has continued to lead bipartisan efforts to end the gun violence epidemic. He proves time and time again that gun violence prevention isn’t a political issue — it’s about protecting people’s lives.
The Brady Campaign is proud to endorse Rep. Fitzpatrick in his campaign to represent Pennsylvania’s 1st Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.
