Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America

Everytown for Gun Safety is an American non-profit organization which supports gun control and is against gun violence. Everytown was formed in 2013 when the groups Mayors Against Illegal Guns and Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America merged.

The organization works to "support efforts to educate policy makers, as well the press and the public, about the consequences of gun violence, and promote efforts to keep guns out of the hands of criminals". The group has focused on passing universal background checks on gun purchases. The organization also does research and studies on gun violence. Former Mayor of New York City Michael Bloomberg gives most of the money that the organization needs.
