We needed 101,667 petition signatures to get background checks on the ballot in Nevada. Volunteers like you delivered more than twice that amount yesterday — the largest number of signatures that’s ever been collected for a Nevada ballot measure!

Building on our historic victory in Washington State, we’re off to a great start in the fight to bring a strong background checks law to Nevada — and beyond. But the NRA has already vowed to fight us at every turn, and we need your support.

Make a gift right now to our trusted partners at Nevadans for Background Checks to keep this momentum up. Your gift will help organizers connect with voters in Nevada and lay important groundwork for more initiatives like this across the country.

Here are some of the photos from yesterday’s record-breaking petition delivery in Las Vegas:

Yesterday’s petition delivery was just the first step in a long journey. These signatures will qualify the Background Check Initiative for the ballot, but we need the support of people like you from across the country if we’re going to eventually win this fight like we did in Washington State.

Make a contribution to our partners at Nevadans for Background Checks and support their work to get this common-sense measure passed at the ballot.

Together, we’re sending a message: When our elected officials refuse to act, we’ll take this issue straight to the people for a yes-or-no vote.

Thanks for powering this fight,

Bridget Lavington
