Rates Of Youth Firearm Death Rates Higher In States With Weakest Gun Laws
The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence united with the Million Mom March and the nation's leading state-based gun violence prevention groups today released "report cards" for every state in America, educating citizens about how their state's leaders are doing on laws and policies that promote a reduction in gun violence.
Sensible Safety Stars were awarded to ten states for protecting children from gun violence last year. Nine other states were sent to the "Time-Out Chair" for irresponsibly weakening state gun laws and thereby endangering the welfare of the states children. 31 states received grades of D or F in this year's report cards.
