This e-appeal was sent on January 25, 2023.
              

Even before the first month of 2023 is finished, CFPA is facing two of the greatest challenges we have ever faced!
 
First, there has been a major surge in mass shootings in the US, with 39 already this year! That is an average of almost 2 per day! CFPA's Ceasefire NJ Project has been at the forefront of passing new gun safety laws, with eight new laws passed in 2022! As a result, gun deaths in NJ were reduced by over 200 last year!
 
One critical law we worked on, but that hasn't yet passed, is requiring Safe Storage of Guns in the home. This is urgently needed, as demonstrated by the six year old who shot his teacher in Virginia. But even in New Jersey, legislators are nervous about supporting such measures. We need to do intensive mobilization to show them their constituents demand such action!
 

The best way to meet this urgent need is for you to click here or below to renew/join with your 2023 CFPA membership RIGHT NOW! If you have already contributed your 2023 membership or are a pledger, thank you. I hope you'll make an additional donation.

More effectively, use the Recurring option under Donation Type to automatically renew your membership in future years. Even better, use the Pledge option to become a monthly or quarterly pledger to help generate the sustained income so essential to the longer term organizing needed to maximize our impact leading up to the 2024 elections!


The second major challenge is preventing the Ukraine War from escalating into the use of nuclear weapons! The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists' Doomsday Clock just got set at 90 seconds to midnight, the closest it has ever been!

CFPA has been working intensively through our Diplomacy Not War Campaign to promote a Diplomatic surge in Ukraine to prevent the growing danger of the use of nuclear weapons there. We urgently need your help to intensify our organizing, as to date many US elected officials have been reluctant to advocate for that. Click here or below to join/renew NOW!
