Gun control advocates give political candidates a boost in races with special program -- ABC News
Everytown for Gun Safety started its Demand a Seat program in 2021 to train and assist grassroots volunteers and gun violence survivors running for office or interested in running campaigns.
The program is funded with over $1.5 million in investments and has had volunteers in every state, according to
Angela Ferrell-Zabala, executive director of Moms Demand Action, an Everytown division.
"It doesn't matter if it's Democratic or Republican gun owners. I talked to so many people and they're just tired of this," Ferrell-Zabala told ABC News.
