Moms Demand Action is a grassroots organization founded in 2012 that advocates for stronger gun control laws in the United States. It was created in response to the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School and aims to reduce gun violence through education, advocacy, and community engagement. The organization is part of the larger Everytown for Gun Safety network. The group mobilizes mothers and supporters to raise awareness about gun safety and to push for legislative changes at local, state, and national levels. They work to promote policies such as background checks for all gun sales and restrictions on high-capacity magazines, striving to create safer communities for families.
