The response by doctors was swift and under the hashtag #thisisourlane.  As it stands now, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention is prevented from funding any research that could potentially be  used to advocate for or promote gun control by the Dickey Amendment.

Join Pace student Laurianne Gutierrez and Vote Everywhere at Pace as they collect petition signatures urging our elected officials to repeal the Dickey Amendment.  Petitions will be delivered at lobby visits happening in Spring 2018.  For more information on how you can get involved, email Laurianne at lg47752n@pace.edu.
