Stop convicted abusers from having guns in Maine

Protect victims of domestic abuse from gun violence and save women's lives. LD 600 makes it illegal for people convicted of a domestic violence crime, including stalking and terrorizing, from being eligible to own or possess guns. An astounding 50 percent or more of the homicides committed in Maine in most years are related to domestic violence.

Why is this important?

This is an important issue that needs to be addressed before we lose any more sisters and daughters to preventable violence.
