Gun Safety: Common-Sense Protections for Georgia Families
The problem: Families across Georgia are raising kids in a world where school shootings have become a fact of life. Meanwhile, incumbent Chuck Martin voted in favor of Georgia's 2017 "campus carry" law allowing concealed handguns on public college campuses, and he has been endorsed by the National Rifle Association, choices that put politics ahead of the safety of students and educators.
What Sara will do about it:
Support common-sense gun safety measures that keep kids and communities safe.
Oppose expanding guns into schools and college campuses.
Push for policies, like safe storage requirements and stronger background checks, that reduce access to guns for those who shouldn't have them, without infringing on responsible, law-abiding gun owners.
Bring the perspective of a parent, not a lobbyist, to the conversation at the Capitol.
Why it matters to her: Uvalde was a turning point for Sara Fuchs, not as a candidate, but as a parent of two middle schoolers. She remembers exactly where she was and what it felt like to imagine her own children in that classroom. She refuses to accept that school shootings are simply how things are now, and she refuses to accept a representative who votes to make campuses less safe. District 49 deserves a state legislator who treats the safety of Georgia's kids as a mission, not a talking point, and Sara Fuchs is running to be that voice.
