Moms Demand Action’s Angela Ferrell-Zabala: Gun Reform and the Path Forward

Gun violence in America is not just a political issue—it’s one of the most urgent public health crises of our time. From mass shootings in schools, churches, and public spaces to the daily toll of community gun violence that rarely makes national headlines, the death toll keeps climbing. The recent mass shooting in Minneapolis—killing two children and injuring 18 others, including 15 kids—shows just how devastating this crisis has become.In this episode, I’m joined by Angela Ferrell-Zabala, Executive Director of Moms Demand Action, to break down how we can finally tackle gun violence in America. We discuss closing dangerous loopholes that allow easy access to firearms, banning assault weapons, strengthening background checks, and expanding mental health resources to keep communities safe.This doesn’t have to be the America we live in. And as Angela makes clear, the majority of Americans—Democrats, Republicans, and Independents alike—support stronger gun control measures. It’s time to turn that consensus into action.
