Washington Ceasefire

A new billboard can be seen over I-94 near Dickerson Avenue and Harper Avenue reminding Michiganders about the state’s new gun safe storage law. The billboard was sponsored by Physicians for the Prevention of Gun Violence, an organization of doctors who are working to prevent the gun injuries and deaths that they often see in their work.

“Just as doctors routinely counsel patients about the importance of seatbelts, sunscreen, and bicycle helmets, we must also talk to our patients about firearm injury prevention. Secure storage will prevent curious toddlers from accessing fi****ms kept in their homes and will protect children and families from entirely avoidable deaths and injuries.,” said Dr. Sonya Lewis, President of Physicians for the Prevention of Gun Violence

Thanks to Lafayette American for the creative work on this!
