2023 Campaign Launch
January 18 * All Day Events
Statewide
EGVM will be holding press + events to highlight various aspects of gun violence on January 18. We have an incoming State Legislature well positioned to take up gun safety measures for Michigan! That is the good news, but that alone will not get us there. We will have challenges ahead so let’s get to work! A new beginning for a New Year!
