Seahawks owner Paul Allen is offering up more than thoughts and prayers.

According to Liz Matthews of USA TODAY Cheap Vinny Curry Jersey , the Microsoft co-founder has donated $1 million to a campaign trying to raise the age to purchase semi-automatic rifles from 18 to 21 in Washington.

The latest donation went to support Initiative 1639, which supporters say would create a background check system for semi-automatic rifles similar to the one for handguns, along with requirements for training and safe storage. The measure needs 260,000 signatures on petitions to get it on the ballot in 2018.

He announced the donation on Twitter, and issued a statement of support.

鈥淚nitiative 1639 is a reasonable and necessary measure that will improve the safety of our schools and our communities Seahawks Will Dissly Jersey , which is why I have contributed a million dollars to the campaign,” he said. “I hope people throughout the state will support the campaign, so that we can qualify and pass this important initiative into law.鈥?/p>

It’s not the first time he’s dropped a big check on gun reform initiatives. In 2014, he donated $500,000 to a campaign which sought to expand background checks on gun sales in his home state.

Washington lawmakers declined a chance to raise the age to buy semi-automatic rifles after February’s school shooting in Florida Authentic Kolton Miller Jersey , which, as it happens, was not the last school shooting in America.

The Buffalo Bills continue shuffling their defensive front during the first week of training camp by signing end Ryan Russell.

Russell is listed at 6-foot-5 and 267 pounds, and has three seasons of NFL experience, including the past two with Tampa Bay. He had two sacks in 14 games Kendall Lamm Jersey , including six starts, with the Buccaneers last season.

He was selected by Dallas in the fifth round of the 2015 draft out of Purdue, but appeared in just one game for the Cowboys.

Buffalo freed up room on its roster on Sunday by releasing Owa Odighizuwa, an offseason free agent addition. Odighizuwa was attempting to resume his career after missing all of last season, when he was cut by the New York Giants shortly after being issued a four-game NFL suspension for violating the league’s policy on performance-enhancers.

The Bills opened training camp Thursday by signing defensive tackle John Hughes.

Injuries have depleted Buffalo’s depth at tight end. Nick O’Leary missed practice Sunday because of an injury to his right foot. Logan Thomas did not return to practice Sunday after hurting his shoulder.

Buffalo is off Monday and resumes camp Tuesday in suburban Rochester.
