Hello and welcome to Hysteria I'm Erin Ryan. This week, Alissa Master Monaco and I call Shannon Watts, founder of Mom's

demand action, and discuss what you and I can do to help move gun control forward.

Then Michaela Watkins, Kirondale, and Dana Schwartz join me in studio for a deep dive into the violence

that surrounds us as American and as always our hill. Thanks for

tuning in before we get to the show today.

If you want to submit a question for dude you asked,

please send it to us at hysteria at crooka.com.

You can also submit questions via Twitter and Instagram and don't forget to check out the segment on

YouTube and IG TV. And if you're frustrated by this weekend news and want to take some action, one thing you can do

right now is call your senators and ask them about HR8.

HR8 is a bipartisan bill that requires background checks on all gun sales or transfers, and that passed the House on February 27th.

But, unsurprisingly, Mitch McConnell has blocked H.R. 8 in the Senate and refuses to bring it to the floor.

While McConnell leads the Senate, America will never get comprehensive gun reform.

So another thing you can do in addition to calling your senators is you can

donate to crooked media's Get Mitch or Die Trying at

Vote Save America.com slash Get Mitch to support 2020 Democratic Senate

candidates so that we can take the majority away from him and finally get the

gun reform that America desperately needs.

I want to give a shout out this week to our listeners in Texas and Ohio.

Our thoughts and our hearts are with you. Hey, Alyssa. Good morning, Aaron. It has been a rough week. It has been a really sad week.

Yeah, and I think you know you and I find ways to explore bits of laughter in bleak weeks. But this feels like a week

where maybe we need some reinforcements and maybe we need to focus on action rather than laughter.
