Qualified on the content I am responsible for because: I am the President of the Brady Campaign & Center to Prevent Gun Violence and I'm one of the foremost leaders in the gun violence prevention movement. I joined Brady in 2012 after co-founding the Center to Prevent Youth Violence in 1998 after my brother was severely wounded in a shooting at the Empire State Building. Under my leadership, Brady utilizes a public health approach including legislative advocacy, legal action and social norm change.
