As a life-long Virginian, Shannon Taylor has long been committed to protecting Virginia communities.
Taylor knows how to fight hard battles, and will continue to do so in the U.S. House of Representatives, fighting for common-sense gun violence prevention measures like expanded Brady Background Checks, a ban on ghost guns, and more.
Taylor said:
I have spent my career taking illegal guns off the streets and advocating for survivors of gun violence.
During her time as an attorney, Taylor has partnered with local lawmakers and gun safety activists, and advocated for gun violence survivors. She helped pass a secure firearm storage law after a teenager used an unsecured firearm to kill a 13-year-old girl returning from school in her community.
The Brady Campaign is proud to endorse Shannon Taylor for election to represent Virginia’s 1st Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.
