FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (5/8/2023):
State Rep. Antonio Parkinson to Host Town Hall Meeting to Discuss Gun Reform and Safety
MEMPHIS-- State Representative Antonio Parkinson will host a town hall meeting in Memphis, Tennessee on Tuesday, May 9th to discuss the issues of gun reform, crime, safety, and mental health. The event will provide an opportunity for citizens to share their thoughts on the current state of gun reform in the city and beyond.
"At what point do we say, "enough is enough?" asks Parkinson. "How many more times are we going to hear an offering of thoughts and prayers from politicians who have the power to make a difference but choose to turn a blind eye to the issues at hand?"
The event will feature a panel of decision-makers who will provide insight into the scope of gun violence in Memphis and across the nation. They will also discuss ways that citizens can help create safer homes and communities by advocating for stronger gun laws. Participants will have the chance to ask questions and provide feedback on proposed solutions.
Attendees will also get the opportunity to connect with local and state law enforcement agencies and other organizations that are working towards reducing crime in Memphis. In addition, representatives from local organizations such as Mothers Demand Action For Gun Sense In America (MDA) and Everytown For Gun Safety (EGS) have been invited to the town hall meeting to offer their perspective on how best to address gun reform in Memphis and across the state. These organizations have long advocated for common sense solutions that protect citizens while respecting Second Amendment rights. The event will conclude with a call-to-action for citizens to become engaged in their communities by volunteering or attending meetings at the state capital.
"I believe it is essential that we take steps now to make our communities safer," said Parkinson. "This town hall meeting provides us with an opportunity to do just that."
The town hall meeting is free and open to all members of the public. It will take place at 6 pm on Tuesday, May 9th, at the Breath of Life Christian Center located at 3795 Frayser Raleigh Road

He's baaaaackkkk! State Representative Justin Jones is back in the Tennessee House of Representatives! After being unfairly expelled, he made his triumphant return to the Tennessee Capitol, was sworn in on the steps and returned to the Tennessee House Chambers. #thetennesseethree #justinjones #tennessee #FYP #civics #Politics #nashvilleschoolshooting #covenantschool #blackandelected #thetennesseetwo
