Stand with our grandkids

We grandparents are so inspired by the voices of young people
taking action. Who are speaking out. We love that some have connected with organizers of #metoo and the Women's March to collaborate, build coalitions, and raise their voices to a scream.
Yet even a scream is not loud enough. We want to stand with
our grandchildren to amplify their voices. We already vote, as they
will soon, too. We often know our local politicians. We have been
active. We have donated to political campaigns. We have a network
and connections. We are vocal.
We can help our grandchildren. We can introduce them to

legislators who have the power to
pass the laws we want passed.
We can "get out the vote" for
our grandchildren as they run
for office. Think of the cultural
change they can make in this
country. Your grandchild can run
for office in Kansas, Vermont
and other states right now. There
is no age limit on how young (or
old) you can be to run for office
in these states.

Grandparents are afraid. We have seen death. We have felt
despair. We are also a sign of hope, having lived full lives in the face
of these challenges.
And we are guilty. It is all of the generations before our grandchildren who created the gun culture in our society that they must now
face. We made it happen, whether deliberately or by not speaking
out sooner. We are responsible for helping to make it right.
My goal is very specific and very doable. Get all 50 states to
adopt the seven laws outlined by the Washington Post.

Together we can make changes

"

Thank god we have a Constitution that allows us to do more than
shake our fists. Together we can make change happen.
I say to my dearest grandchildren: I am available Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday of this
week and next. Let's roll up our sleeves and get started.
