Mission: To mobilize voter support for common-sense gun policies and an end to gun violence in America.Background: Everytown for Gun Safety was created in 2014 by former New York City mayor Michael R. Bloomberg to mobilize voter support for 'common-sense gun policies' and an end to gun violence in America.

Most recently, the group has focused on efforts to require universal background checks with firearms purchases — and has largely avoided advocacy aimed at banning specific types of weapons.
