Prosecutors Against Gun Violence Appoint New Co-Chair: Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg 
District Attorney Bragg said, “I am honored to Co-Chair Prosecutors Against Gun Violence, a formidable nationwide collective of bipartisan prosecutors working together to find creative and commonsense fixes to address gun violence and advance public safety. I have seen the devastating impact of firearms on our families and communities since a very young age, and I came into office with the specific goal of combating gun violence.
