Hundreds of hopeful volunteers with the gun control group, Moms Demand Action, gathered at the state capitol Wednesday morning.

Their focus included encouraging lawmakers to limit gun access for domestic abusers. So far, a democrat-sponsored bill aimed at doing that has seen no bipartisan support from lawmakers.

“We have a lot of people, members of our group, today who are gun owners and republicans. And we have seen co-sponsor gun safety bills in Georgia,” volunteer Mallory Harris said.
