We demand #OURgunvote
I stand with Firearms Policy Coalition and respectfully demand that you pass important pro-Second Amendment legislation forward without further delay. The people of the United States -- especially law-abiding gun owners -- installed a Republican House and Senate to do a job: Protect and advance the fundamental, individual right to keep and bear arms. Some of the ways that the Congress can and must do this right now include: - Pass strong right-to-carry reciprocity legislation to make sure that at least one manner of the right to bear arms is accessible to all law-abiding people throughout the United States; - Repeal unconstitutional federal "gun free zone" laws and pre-empt state and local "gun free zone" laws so that innocent people are not jailed for peacefully exercising their right on the wrong side of the street; - Enact strong pre-emption laws to restore access to common, semi-automatic rifles, pistols, shotguns, and other firearms for millions of law-abiding people in states like California, Hawaii, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Connecticut, and Massachusetts; - Reform and repeal outdated NFA restrictions, including by allowing law-abiding people across the country to buy and use important hearing protection devices like sound suppressors; - Bring unconstitutional and outdated federal law, including the Gun Control Act, into compliance with the Second Amendment and the Supreme Court's D.C. v. Heller decision; - Eliminate infringing ITAR regulations and move all firearms controls out of the Department of State; - Restore sufficient funding for the civil rights restoration process and ensure that all states also have a way for Second Amendment rights to be restored; - Establish a Second Amendment section within the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division to protect the right to keep and bear arms from anti-gun governments and government officials; - Reign in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and their unconstitutional (and often arbitrary and capricious) executive overreach, unsupported technical determinations, and unmerited regulations; and, - Many other worthwhile reforms that are already represented in bills awaiting a hearing. We want #OURgunvote. And NOW is the time to GET THIS DONE.
This message is being delivered to House Speaker Ryan and Senate Majority Leader McConnell.
