UPDATE 10/2: FOIA docs:
The first point of contact for MDA (Taylor Egan) also participated in the mass walkouts demanding gun control in 2018:
On to the FOIA’s:
Original publication:
They never quit. From the Kane County Chronicle:
GENEVA – The Geneva District 304 school board will consider a resolution advising parents about safe gun storage put school officials at its next meeting – after discussion at its Monday meeting resulted in questions about whether it would shame students.
Identified on the agenda as the Student Safe Storage resolution, the measure states that unauthorized access to firearms is a student safety concern and seeks to remind parents that guns in a household should be stored properly – where students cannot have access to them.
Geneva resident Steve McHugh presented the background of the resolution, stating it was a way to provide awareness and prevention both of school shootings and accidental shootings by children who think the gun is a toy, and suicide by firearms.
McHugh said the resolution includes a letter to be sent home about safe gun storage and ask for a parent’s signature.
Luckily, some board members seem to get it:
But considering that a parent can choose not to sign a letter prompted a question from Board member Michael McCormick: “If that is the case, then why sign it at all?”
McCormick said he was concerned that a parent who did not want to sign the letter could see the issue as an infringement of constitutional rights, or possible shaming of students whose parents did not sign.
Some board members seemed to disagree:
McCormick said he wondered if people were not listening to him, as he was not making a point about gun violence.
“I’m just saying I want to make sure our kids don’t feel bad if their parents don’t sign,” McCormick said.
Guess who’s behind the resolution?
The resolution comes from Everytown for Gun Safety, the National Education Association and the American Federal of Teachers, according to the background of the proposed resolution.
Everytown! Hell, the guy that presented it to the school board even lists that he’s a MDA chapter co-lead on his LinkedIn:
Here’s the resolution presented to D304 by Steve, it’s straight from Everytown itself:
Be it known that this area is filled with Moms Demand Action (Everytown) activists and they’re also cozy with the Geneva mayor. So cozy in fact that the mayor has offered the Geneva Police Department as “bodyguards“ at their PUBLIC meetings in order to protect them from those “evil” NRA members (the NRA never told people to go to their meetings btw, that‘s a lie):
In regards to the district resolution (which surely won’t lead to incidents like this), we have filed a FOIA request:
Oh, and Steve....
If you’re going to play that angle, start by addressing what’s going on inside your own organization in terms of “racism“:

To the Geneva school board, don’t listen to these people (Everytown/Moms Demand Action activists). They‘re lobbyists funded by Michael Bloomberg and do whatever he and the DNC tell them to do (and they’re hypocrites, as shown above). They’re using school boards to pass their crap because they can’t get it done via legislation at the moment.
