On the morning of April 12th, 2022, a man opened fire on the passengers of a subway train in Brooklyn, New York and ultimately injured 17 people before fleeing the scene. We at APAMSA grieve for the victims and acknowledge the fear that now strikes many New Yorkers’ hearts. We continue to denounce gun violence and reaffirm our support for comprehensive gun reform that would promote the health and safety of our communities. National APAMSA offers its support to all local chapters and its members during these frightening times, and we encourage you to reach out with any specific ways we can be of service.
