Our Impact

The United States had the largest drop in homicides in recent history from January-June 2024 thanks in part to advocacy efforts led by Brady under the Biden-Harris administration that reversed an all-time record in violence under the first Trump presidency. 

We have helped pass laws that regulate or ban untraceable “ghost guns” in 16 states.

We won a $1.2M settlement against Polymer80, the country’s largest manufacturer of ghost guns, for its role in fueling gun violence in Baltimore. Shortly after our lawsuit, Polymer80 shut down. 

An additional 20,000 gun sellers are now required to conduct background checks on gun sales thanks to federal action advocated for by Brady under the Biden-Harris administration.  

Since the Parkland shooting, Team ENOUGH, Brady’s youth-led arm, has founded 50 student-run chapters nationwide, helping mobilize youth activists to end gun violence in their communities.

Since our Show Gun Safety campaign launched two years ago, Brady has trained over 700 writers, creatives, and executives on how they can responsibly portray guns and shift culture to save lives.

We worked with CBS’s SWAT to portray safe firearm storage in an episode that reached over 5 million viewers. We also assisted ABC on an episode of the Grey’s Anatomy spinoff Station 19, which reached over 3 million viewers.

Over 4,000 gun sales to individuals convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence crimes were blocked since the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act was passed, thanks in part to executive orders from the Biden-Harris administration.

In 2024, our policy team helped pass 73 priority gun violence prevention bills through state legislatures, helping save countless lives.

Our movement is built on the basis of our grassroots activists. Thanks to supporters like you, we drove 119,000 grassroots messages to lawmakers in 2024 alone. 

Healthcare professionals are on the frontline of the gun violence epidemic. Over 35k healthcare professional will receive our This Is Our Lane resource guide on how to talk to patients about firearm safety.

The United States saw over a 25% decline in the number of mass shootings in 2024 compared to 2023, thanks in part to persistent legal, legislative, and community-based work led by Brady.
