Tom Palzewicz Releases Comprehensive Gun Safety Reform Plan
“We must do better than thoughts and prayers for the victims and their families.”
Brookfield, WI—Tom Palzewicz, candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in Wisconsin’s 5th district, today released a comprehensive five-point plan for gun safety reform.
“As a hunter and past gun owner, I respect that the Second Amendment guarantees the rights of law-abiding and responsible gun owners,” said Palzewicz. “In fact, I was previously a member of the NRA and earned a marksmanship award from the organization—back when when it was actually focused on training and gun safety.
“Gun violence has since become an overwhelming epidemic in America,” continued Palzewicz. “I believe the tragic loss of life at Stoneman Douglas High School last month could have been prevented or at least mitigated with common-sense gun safety reforms. Just today, there’s yet another school shooting in Maryland. We must do better than thoughts and prayers for the victims and their families. We can take concrete action to make our communities safer.
“That is why I’ve put together a comprehensive five-point plan to ensure that we do everything in our power to stop preventable gun violence,” concluded Palzewicz.
