Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate Distinction

John Whitmire, who is running for Houston Mayor, has been awarded the 2023 Gun Sense Candidate Distinction by Moms Demand Action.

This distinction signals to the supporters and volunteers of Moms Demand Action and Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund, along with all voters, that a candidate advocates for gun violence prevention and will govern with gun safety in mind.

“I am honored to receive this distinction,” said Whitmire. “I have always fought to prevent gun violence and encouraged responsible gun ownership.”

Whitmire, longtime chair of the Texas Senate’s Criminal Justice Committee, authored the state’s red flag law, which gives families and law enforcement a way to temporarily remove guns from persons who pose a serious threat to themselves or others.

Whitmire has represented Senate District 15 in the Texas Senate for the past 40 years, after serving ten years in the Texas House. He knows Houston is a great city, where its diverse population comes together to tackle tough issues. Whitmire wants to see the city reach its full potential by taking on the tough issues facing our city. Those issues include public safety, illegal dumping, homelessness, flooding and drainage, street and water system repair and neighborhood traffic safety. He also wants to boost the morale of police and firefighters and let them know that Houston has their backs.
