 The numbers are in on Graham-Cassidy -- the Senate's dangerous, last-ditch effort to repeal Obamacare. They're not pretty. If you're one of the 130 million Americans with a pre-existing condition, you may pay a lot more for your health care.  This isn't a health care bill. It's a devastating threat to millions of Americans. We've stopped repeal before, and we can do it again. But we have to keep speaking out. Call, call, and keep calling key senators.

Gunshots are loud.
A single shot makes more noise, per decibel, than an airliner taking off. Or a firework exploding. Or a jackhammer chipping away at a sidewalk.
It's that distinctive noise that alerts our police to an active shooter. It helps victims and other innocent bystanders figure out where gunfire is coming from, so they can move to safety. And it gives those who are thinking about firing a gun pause, knowing that it'll draw attention.
It's pretty simple: The noise that guns make helps prevent gun violence ... yet somehow, that's exactly what the gun lobby and their friends in Congress are fighting against with their bill that would allow anyone to buy a gun silencer without so much as a background check.
Join me and Valerie Jarrett, former Senior Advisor to President Obama, on a call this Friday at 11 a.m. EST to talk about this threat to public safety -- and how we can work together to stop it.
The gun lobby claims this bill is meant to protect hunter's hearing, but that's just an excuse. It's nothing more than an effort to drive more sales for corporations who manufacture and sell firearm silencers -- cutting regulations that have been in place for 80 years so that anyone, even criminals and domestic abusers, can get a hold of a silencer, no questions asked.
It defies major law enforcement enforcement organizations, who have come out strongly against it. It defies the majority of Americans who want smart, sensible solutions.
It defies common-sense.
Gabby and I are fighting hard against it, but we need your help. We're thrilled Valerie is joining Friday's call -- and we hope you will, too. Say you're in:

Captain Mark Kelly
Co-Founder, Americans for Responsible Solutions
Just wanted to make sure you got the details for tomorrow morning's call with Valerie Jarrett, former Senior Advisor to President Obama, and Captain Mark Kelly, co-founder of Americans for Responsible Solutions.
We'll be talking about the SHARE Act, a bill supported by the gun lobby that could make gun silencers available to anyone -- including criminals and domestic abusers -- without a background check. On the call, we'll be going over ways we can stop this disastrous bill from becoming law.
Here are the details:
What: SHARE Act briefing call with special guests Valerie Jarrett and Mark Kelly
When: Friday, September 22, 11 a.m. ET
When: Friday, September 22, 11 a.m. ET

If it becomes law, the SHARE Act may put our safety at risk. It's up to all of us to get involved in pushing back against it, and that starts with getting on tomorrow's call.
