Public Safety
Nabeela’s generation grew up doing active shooter drills and she will work tirelessly to make sure her children will not have to. She supports funding our first responders so they can do their jobs and keep our communities safe. The Illinois legislature just passed bills requiring universal background checks and banning ghost guns which are guns that can be assembled by the user and do not have serial numbers. This is a step in the right direction to keep our communities safer, but there’s more to do.
Gun deaths are preventable. We need gun reform now.
As State Representative, Nabeela will...
Fight for a ban on military-style assault weapons.
Stop the flow of illegal weapons coming into Illinois from neighboring states. A majority of gun-related crimes in Illinois are using illegal guns from neighboring states
Increase gun owner accountability and improve crime gun tracing by fighting for mandatory firearm registration
Advocate for safe storage laws which require guns to be stored in a gun safe or with a locking device
