Former Rep. Colin Allred has demonstrated a deep commitment to protecting Texas communities from gun violence.
When in Congress, Rep. Allred supported the Federal Extreme Risk Protection Order Act, which establishes grants to support the implementation of extreme risk protection order laws at the state and local level, legislation to close gun sale loopholes, and a federal assault weapons ban. He is prepared to bring that fight back to the House once more and support critical gun violence prevention legislation.
Rep. Allred said:
I don’t believe that it has to be this way. I know it doesn’t have to be this way. We don’t have to live like this. Our public places don’t have to become memorials. Our places of worship, our malls, and especially our schools don’t have to become the site of the next tragedy.
The Brady Campaign is proud to endorse Rep. Colin Alred for election to represent Texas’ 33rd Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.
