Daniel Biss has been fighting to protect Illinois communities his whole life.
As a community activist, state senator, and now mayor, Biss has worked to pass key legislation that has worked to create a brighter future in Illinois. He will bring that fighting spirit to the U.S. House of Representatives and take on the gun industry and the Trump administration.
Biss said:
Our national obsession with guns is claiming innocent lives every day. It’s time for sensible gun policy that protects families and encourages responsible ownership while holding gun manufacturers responsible.
As a father, Biss knows firsthand how crucial it is to stop the gun violence epidemic and make a safer world for future generations. He believes thoughts and prayers aren’t enough; representatives must stand up and pass crucial legislation to prevent gun violence. While in Congress, Biss has promised to support Brady Background Checks, an assault weapons ban, extreme risk laws, safe storage requirements, and more.
The Brady Campaign is proud to endorse Biss for election to represent Illinois’ 9th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.
