I Oppose Guns on College Campuses

State Elected Officials

UPDATED - August 1, 2024

America’s public colleges and universities are under attack. The gun lobby continues to push bills in many state legislatures that would change laws and force colleges and universities to allow students, faculty, and staff to carry loaded, concealed handguns on campus.

If you are a parent, grandparent, guardian or student looking at colleges for the Fall of 2025, please sign our petition AND visit our sister site:  ArmedCampuses.org to learn about campus gun laws across the country.

Since 2008, The Campaign To Keep Guns Off Campus has helped to defeat more than 120 bills in 20 states, which in turn, has protected over several million students and faculty across the country. Most recently, The Campaign is also opposing policies in several states that would arm teachers and school personnel in K-12 settings.

We have now completed the 2024 state legislative season and are happy to report some major victories in several states:   Guns on campus bills were defeated in Arizona, Florida,  Kentucky, and Wyoming.  On the pro-active side, Colorado repealed their guns on campus law and we believe that Delaware will be following Colorado's lead by the end of the month.

As a first step, please voice your opposition to guns on campus by signing and sharing this petition.

Thank you.

We, the undersigned, oppose any attempts by the government to allow the carrying of concealed or open firearms by students, faculty or staff. We urge our state elected officials to vote against any bill permitting guns on campus. Let's keep college for learning, not for toting guns.
