This episode features a young woman with a passion for creating real policy change, Liddy Ballard. Liddy is a State Policy Manager at Brady, an organization that works across Congress, courts, and communities to end America's gun violence epidemic. As someone with a passion for attacking the root causes rather than the symptoms of gun violence, and is emboldened every time a preventable mass shooting event occurs, Liddy shares about what it’s like to fight back against one of the biggest lobbying efforts in the nation, what people like you can do to get involved, how her early career experience led to where she is today, and more.
