Keeping up with news about gun violence isn’t easy. Just about every day, there’s a new study to parse, developments in court cases and state legislatures, stories about the trials, errors, and successes of violence prevention initiatives, and more. 

The Bulletin newsletter delivers the most relevant and interesting news on the gun violence beat, including the latest stories from The Trace, straight to your inbox every Monday and Wednesday morning. Each edition contains a selection of news briefs, ranging from the hyperlocal to the national levels, and a slightly more in-depth explanation of a salient gun issue.

By signing up for The Bulletin, you’ll stay up to date on the latest developments in gun violence research, solutions, and policy, and receive our team’s contextualized explanations of news dominating the headlines. You’ll also get stories that might otherwise fly under the radar — including about creative community-based efforts to counter gun violence.

With this newsletter, we hope to keep readers informed on the issue, and highlight essential news you won’t see elsewhere. Ultimately, the goal of The Bulletin is the same as The Trace itself: to improve public understanding, increase accountability, and identify solutions to gun violence.
