Thanks for talking so emphatically about why the means matter, @SenRonLatz , when we talk about suicide prevention. It’s hard to hear, but important. Reducing access to lethal means saves lives. #erpo #mnleg #besmart @MomsDemand @MNBeSMART1

Things moved very quickly this morning, but I wanted to recognize @jbeckerfinn for using her bill hearing time to make a PSA that parents ASK about secure storage in other homes and disclose their own. Policy change 🤝 culture change @MomsDemand @MNBeSMART1

Requiring firearms be stored securely to prevent access by juveniles or prohibited individuals, is a small step to prevent tragedies and keep families safe! Thank you @jbeckerfinn for carrying #HF396 to require secure storage of firearms in Minnesota! @MomsDemand #MNLeg

On National Injury Prevention Day, we remember that firearms are the leading cause of death in kids. I joined #BeSMART after seeing this too often in residency. The message is simple. Store guns locked, unloaded, and separate from ammunition.

I volunteer with MN @MomsDemand so that when this generation of kids ask me what I did to make them safer from gun violence at school, I can be proud of my answer. @MomsDemand #BeSMART

Thankful those on the frontline of the gun violence epidemic get this lifesaving training! To support Law Enforcement & lessen their need to treat massive bleeds, we all can ensure our firearms are securely stored to prevent others from accessing them. #BeSMART @DuluthMNPolice
