My suggestion is to help your regional office of your local party of choice, as the elections near and the candidate choices become clearer.
Exactly right. Gun control on the federal level is political kryptonite, but there's still a fight at the local level in many places.

Following incorporation in June, we'll see the brushfires starting in places like Chicago, Baltimore and the District of Columbia. That's where our energy is needed.

Chances are, no matter where you live, there's some sort of goofy gun law on the books that could stand repealing. There are still hearts and minds to change.

I'll take back Tip O'Neill's quote from Speaker Pelosi: "All gun politics is now local."
