Karly's Legacy Drives National Gun Safety Reform | Omaha News

Published 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Description

In the wake of her daughter Karly’s tragic death at a house party in Omaha, Amber Wood turned grief into purpose, rallying to push for national change. Karly, just 20, was shot eight times in a mass shooting by a convicted felon with a violent history. Amber teamed up with Senator Pete Ricketts to introduce the Karly Rain Wood Act — a bill calling for a national registry of repeat violent offenders, modeled after the sex offender registry. The law aims to end the secrecy that allows dangerous individuals to slip through the cracks. For Amber, speaking Karly’s name is both healing and a call to action — ensuring her daughter’s legacy lives on by making America safer for all.
