Gun-Grabbers Smell Blood After Democratic Midterm Sweep
12th November 2026
Advocates for stricter gun laws are pushing for new legislation as Democrats are set to take control in Congress and several states after the midterm elections.
Groups such as Everytown for Gun Safety, Brady United Against Gun Violence, and Giffords hailed the Democratic wins, with Brady United vowing to “counter the Trump administration’s deadly ‘guns everywhere’ agenda, which has put millions of lives at risk.”
“The election of so many candidates who have made evidence-based gun violence prevention strategies a priority is an opportunity to make meaningful progress toward a safer country,” Brady president Kris Brown wrote in a Nov. 4 statement.
