Rep. Jake Auchincloss is a strong leader for gun violence prevention in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Rep. Auchincloss’ time in the U.S. Marine Corps, coupled with his service on the Newton City Council, has prepared him with a deep understanding of firearms and gun violence prevention policies.
Since joining Congress in 2021, he has joined a growing contingent of military and intelligence veterans who stand for gun safety, recognize gun violence as a public health crisis, and understand that weapons of war have no place in our communities.
Rep. Auchincloss said:
As a former Marine officer who trained and deployed with assault weapons, gun safety is a priority for me. We need an assault-weapons ban, because weapons of war have no place on our streets or near our schools. And we need to adopt the common-sense suite of Massachusetts measures to reduce gun violence: background checks, safe storage, red-flag laws, and more.
The Brady Campaign is proud to endorse Rep. Jake Auchincloss for reelection to represent Massachusetts’ 4th Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives.
