The events in Orlando underscore the need to renew our calls for the ban of sales of semi automatic weapons. DFNYC is a member of the New Yorkers Against Gun Violence coalition. NYAGV is encouraging people to contact their local elected Congressional representation and demand a federal ban on assault weapons. At the time there was such a ban but it was tragically allowed to expire. Please use NYAGV's website links to contact your representatives:
