EMAIL DETAILS

We think the gun violence legislation would be another great engagement
tool, in addition to continuing to drive awareness of Beau's positions and
ideas on gun violence. Below is the draft copy of an email, Tweet,
petition landing page, and Facebook ads. Joe from the office is reviewing
as well to ensure it's in line with what is being proposed and has been
said on the record at this point. Please let me know what feedback you
have--

Dear Friend:

Beau]<http://action.beaubiden.com/page/m/-3984e5a6/-5faef8a8/-761927eb/4abd8733/793787327/VEsE/>Over
the past month, we've seen some heated discussion on the best ways to
reduce gun violence in America.
The tragedy that took place in Newtown just over a month ago shook this
country to the core. As Delaware's Attorney General and a father of two
beautiful children, it has always been my mission to protect the most
vulnerable among us. And I know that we can do better. We must.

I've joined with Gov. Jack Markell and Lt. Gov. Denn in support of a
package of legislation aimed at reducing gun violence in Delaware.

*We're looking to back up our efforts with strong grassroots energy from
supporters like you. All you have to do is click here and sign on to add
your support for common-sense legislation to reducegun
violence!*<http://action.beaubiden.com/page/m/-3984e5a6/-5faef8a8/-761927eb/4abd8733/793787327/VEsF/>

I want to be clear: I am a supporter the Second Amendment. And I believe
these are constitutional, common-sense solutions that will keep weapons
that belong on the battlefield off our streets and out of our communities.

Background checks for private gun sales. Preventing the sale or transfer of
high-capacity magazines. Mandatory reporting of lost or stolen firearms.
These are initiatives that have worked in other states before, and there's
no reason we can't make them work for us.

In addition, we will be pushing for a ban on automatic and semi-automatic
assault weapons. The state ban is similar to the national Assault Weapons
Ban that expired in 2004, and will be focused on taking rifles with
military features out of our communities.

Those are the details. Now here’s the plan. *In order to get this done,
we'll need a massive grassroots effort behind us. Show your support for
sensible solutions to reduce gun violence -- sign the petition
today.*<http://action.beaubiden.com/page/m/-3984e5a6/-5faef8a8/-761927eb/4abd8733/793787327/VEsC/>

Thank you.
