WASHINGTON, D.C., April 29, 2026 — Today, the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence announced its endorsement of national gun violence prevention leader and former Montgomery County school board member Matt Post for Maryland House District 14.
This announcement is a part of the Brady Campaign's long-term strategy to build lasting gun violence prevention majorities at every level of government. With federal action on public safety often stalled, the Brady Campaign is prioritizing state legislatures, including the Maryland Assembly, as the primary battlegrounds for enacting life-saving reforms.
“Matt Post represents the next generation of leadership that Maryland and our country desperately need. Having come of age in a generation defined by the threat of gun violence in schools, Matt refused to accept it as normal. From his service on the Montgomery County school board to his work in the national gun violence prevention movement, Matt has consistently delivered results. He will bring that same urgency and commitment to the Maryland House,” said Kris Brown, President of the Brady Campaign.
Matt Post was an original Executive Council member of Team ENOUGH, Brady’s youth-led initiative. In this role, Post helped galvanize a generation of advocates — often referred to as Generation Lockdown – turning collective trauma into sustained civil engagement and policy advocacy after the 2018 Parkland shooting. Post also has a distinguished record in public education and labor advocacy, demonstrating a consistent ability to find meaningful solutions for Marylanders.
The Brady Campaign will mobilize grassroots supporters this cycle in support of candidates who will advance common-sense gun violence prevention policies, strengthen public safety, and stand up to the gun lobby’s deadly agenda.
