Our Partner's Event: Albany Lobby Day |

On April 27, 2010, our partners at New Yorkers Against Gun Violence will host its annual Albany Lobby Day in Albany, NY. Hundreds of teenagers from Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan, Long Island, Westchester and Buffalo will pay a visit to their state and city leaders to discuss the issue of gun violence and lobby for stricter gun laws and safer streets. The students will give public presentations and meet privately with lawmakers to make their case to get illegal weapons off the streets where they live. The day will culminate in a lie-in, where all the students will lie down in front of the courthouse in a moment of silence, honoring those who have been killed by gun violence.
