This is a nation-wide effort.

I'm sharing what I just received as an email. 

The local march is here:

 NC-Asheville-Ban Assault Weapons

Pack Square Park West

121 College St

Asheville, NC 2880

Saturday, May 13, 10:00 AM

Join us for a march from Pack Square around downtown Asheville as we demand action from Congress to ban assault weapons. We will educate through our chants and signs how everyone in our community can take action now on gun sense safety policies, including the assault weapons ban.

We're rallying in communities across the country TOMORROW, Saturday, May 13 to demand Congress reinstate the bipartisan assault weapons ban immediately—and our volunteers have been adding new events every single day.

Will you join us? Find an event near you and help demand an assault weapons ban NOW.

Barbara– We've had enough. We're not going to let the gun lobby win. Banning assault weapons worked before. It can work again now. We're rallying in communities across the country TOMORROW, Saturday, May 13 to demand Congress reinstate the bipartisan assault weapons ban immediately—and our volunteers have been adding new events every single day. Will you join us? Find an event near you and help demand an assault weapons ban NOW. FIND AN EVENT We've needed Congress to reinstate an assault weapons ban for years. Our country had one for nearly a decade—and it worked. But in 2004, the gun lobby prevented Congress from renewing the ban, even though it had bipartisan support. In the years since, we've become all too familiar with the consequences. Inaction has helped make this crisis as utterly devastating as it has become. Gun violence continues to kill 120 people every day, and there have already been more than 180 mass shootings this year. In several of them, an assault weapon was used to kill children while at school, to attack people in acts fueled by hate and bigotry, and to retaliate at former workplaces. Assault weapons have no place in our communities, and we refuse to let our lawmakers continue to do nothing. Lives are at stake. Inaction is not an option.
