The NSSF, which is the firearm industry’s trade association, is already calling on the incoming administration to dismantle the first-ever federal Office of Gun Violence Prevention.
The Office of Gun Violence Prevention was established by the Biden-Harris Administration in 2023. It has been a first-of-its-kind federal government effort to coordinate with states and federal officials to stop violence, invest in community intervention programs, respond to shootings, and support survivors.
In particular, the office is helping to distribute the largest investment in youth mental health ever, by giving $1 billion to schools across the country and hiring and training more than 14,000 mental health professionals who can help students process the trauma of gun violence. Shutting down this office would be a severe blow to public safety.
It’s no surprise that the NSSF, whose mission is gun manufacturer profits, would rather line their pockets through selling more firearms than keep our communities safe from preventable gun violence.
Our work to call on the Trump Administration to keep the Office of Gun Violence Prevention in place is well underway, and we need your support to help us in this important advocacy.
