Story highlights

Gabby Giffords, the former congresswoman is the focus of the latest ad backing Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign.
The ad, titled "Gabby," will run in Massachusetts through Tuesday

(CNN)Gabby Giffords, the former congresswoman who was gravely injured when she was shot in the head during an appearance near a Tucson supermarket in 2011, is the focus of the latest ad backing Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign.

The ad, titled "Gabby,"
will run in Massachusetts through Tuesday, when the state's Democrats will pick between Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders. The 30-second spot foscuses on Clinton's positions on stopping gun violence and tightening gun control laws.

"I am fed up," Giffords says in the ad. "We have a gun violence problem. So I am voting for Hillary Clinton. She is tough. She will stand up to the gun lobby. She will fight to make our families safer. It matters."

Clinton's voice then endorses the ad.

Giffords and Kelly endorsed Clinton last month and have been stumping for her across the country since then.

"Time and time again, Hillary has done and said what is right, not what is politically expedient. That's why we are supporting her for president of the United States," the couple said in a statement to CNN.
