Quavo Takes on Congress: Advocating for Stronger Gun Control Measures to Tackle Gun Violence

Quavo, the former frontman of Migos, made a powerful statement against gun violence during his visit to Capitol Hill. As part of his Rocket Foundation, Quavo met with political leaders to voice his concerns and push for stronger gun control measures.

In a show of solidarity, Quavo was joined by his mother and the mother of his bandmate, Takeoff. Together, they participated in the 52nd Annual Legislative Conference, highlighting the importance of addressing gun violence.

During his visit, Quavo met with prominent figures like House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Senator Cory Booker, and Representatives Nikema Williams, Steven Horsford, Lisa Blunt Rochester, Robin Kelly, and Maxwell Frost. He also had a meeting with community organizer Greg Jackson. Their discussions centered around potential solutions to gun violence.

The Rocket Foundation, founded by Quavo, aims to raise awareness about gun violence prevention on both state and federal levels. The organization is committed to making a meaningful impact and bringing change to Black and Brown communities.

Quavo’s visit coincided with the ongoing “Break the Cycle of Violence Act” campaign by several Congress members. The closed-door meeting proved to be a step towards finding effective strategies to combat gun violence.

Quavo’s advocacy for gun violence prevention is deeply rooted in his personal experience. The tragic loss of his bandmate, Takeoff, in a shooting incident only strengthened his determination to honor his legacy by fighting against gun violence.

For Quavo, eradicating gun violence conditions in Black and Brown communities is a top priority. In addition to his Congress visit, he also plans to lead a community conversation in the nation’s capital, further driving the discussion forward.
