Today, we are taking another step to keep the gun violence prevention movement front and center. For the next two weeks, eight billboard video screens in Times Square will remind people that we’re not just saying enough is enough.
We want change. We’re going to make sure people don’t stop talking about the gun violence epidemic in America.
We are sending a message loud and clear in Times Square. We lose more and more potential every day that we don’t treat gun violence with the urgency it deserves.

We’ve protested in front of Congress, targeted influencers across the country, developed QR-code t-shirts to register voters, filled Congressional hearing rooms with hundreds of students, and used texts to organize supporters and drive Get Out The Vote efforts (have you joined our We Call B.S. team yet? Text SAVE LIVES to 954-954). And just last month, we went to the U.S. Capitol to send a clear and powerful message to our nation’s leaders: Your Complacency Kills Us.
Now, we’re taking to Times Square to continue making our message accessible to as many people as possible.
Over the course of two weeks, these billboards will reach nearly five and a half million people. The video will play four times every hour, from now through April 30th. If by chance you’ll be passing through Times Square and see them, post about your experience using #MarchForOurLives, so you can help us spread the message we all believe in.
Thank you for your support — we wouldn’t be able to create this kind of cultural shift on gun violence in this country without your endless support.
In solidarity,
Lauren Hogg
