do more to reduce gun violence.
WHEREAS, every day, 88 Americans are killed by gun violence and the lives of countless others are
injured; and
WHEREAS, Americans are 20 times more likely to be murdered with guns than people in other
developed countries; and
WHEREAS, protecting public safety in the communities they serve is mayors’ highest responsibility;
and
WHEREAS, support for the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens goes hand-in-hand with
keeping guns away from dangerous people; and
WHEREAS, mayors and law enforcement officers know their communities best, are the most familiar
with local criminal activity and how to address it, and are best positioned to understand how to keep their
citizens safe; and

WHEREAS, June 2nd, 2015 would have been the 18th birthday of Hadiya Pendleton, a teenager who
marched in President Obama’s second inaugural parade and was tragically shot and killed just weeks
later; and
WHEREAS, to help honor Hadiya – and the 88 Americans whose lives are cut short and the countless
survivors who are injured by shootings every day – a national coalition of organizations has designated
June 2nd, 2015, as the first annual National Gun Violence Awareness Day; and
WHEREAS, the idea was inspired by a group of Hadiya’s friends, who asked their classmates to
commemorate her life by wearing orange; they chose this color because hunters wear orange to announce
themselves to other hunters when out in the woods and orange is a color that symbolizes the value of
human life; and
WHEREAS, anyone can join this campaign by pledging to Wear Orange on June 2nd to help raise
awareness about gun violence; and
WHEREAS, by wearing orange on June 2nd, Americans will raise awareness about gun violence and
honor the lives and lost human potential of Americans stolen by gun violence; and
WHEREAS, we renew our commitment to reduce gun violence and pledge to do all we can to keep
firearms out of the wrong hands, and encourage responsible gun ownership to help keep our children safe.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that Mayor Roswarski of the city of Lafayette declares June
2 to be National Gun Violence Awareness Day. I encourage all citizens to support their local
communities’ efforts to prevent the tragic effects of gun violence and to honor and value human lives.
Mayor Roswarski announced that tomorrow is Opening Night for the Lafayette Aviators Baseball Team
at Loeb Station and invited everyone to attend that event.
Mrs. Murray thanked the Fire Department for the wonderful Memorial Day Ceremony that they hosted.
Mrs. Murray also thanked the Parks Department for putting out American Flags and for making
Columbian Park look nice.
