Rep. Susie Lee has demonstrated a deep commitment to protecting Nevada communities from gun violence.
In October 2017, Las Vegas saw the deadliest shooting in modern American history at the Route 91 Music Festival, with 60 people killed and hundreds injured. Like many others, Rep. Lee knows people personally affected by this shooting, and has vowed to prevent tragedies like this from happening again.
Rep. Lee said:
Nevadans are tired of it and so am I. We cannot and should not continue to accept this violence. We must honor the victims with action that can prevent the next mass shooting, and I will do everything in my power to hold Washington to that.
In her time in office, Rep. Lee has worked with gun violence survivors, students, advocates, and community leaders to create a future in which everyone is free from the pain of gun violence. She fought to implement universal background checks, close gun sale loopholes, and helped usher in dedicated federal funding for gun violence prevention research.
The Brady Campaign is proud to endorse Rep. Lee for re-election to represent Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.
