Former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) stars in an ad released Monday by the gun control group she launched with her husband, Mark Kelly, who also appears in the ad.

“We have a problem: where we shop, where we pray, where our children go to school,” Giffords said in the Americans For Responsible Solutions ad. “But there are solutions we can agree on, even gun owners like us. Take it from me, Congress must act. Let’s get this done.”

The ad featured the scenes of recent mass shootings and flashes a figure stating that nine of out 10 Americans support universal background checks. According to Politico, the ad will run in the hometowns of top congressional leaders.
