Why aren’t you pushing concealed carry reciprocity as an alternative to red flags? The House Judiciary Committee recently reported three gun control bills: 1) Magazine bans that will endanger law-abiding gun owners facing multiple attackers (H.R. 1186); 2) “Red Flag” Gun Confiscation Orders (H.R. 1236) that will throw out Due Process; and, 3) Hate crimes gun ban (H.R. 2708) which will impose a lifetime gun ban on gun owners for non-violent actions -- primarily because they held views Democrats don’t like. Please OPPOSE these bills. As pointed out by Gun Owners of America (GOA), our country does not need additional laws to deal with killers like the Dayton, Ohio shooter. GOA’s Legislative Counsel Michael Hammond penned an article in Townhall showing that the Dayton killer could have easily had his guns removed (using due process) if anyone had bothered to use existing law. The killer had a long record of threatening people, and as it turns out, one can be charged in Ohio with “menacing,” which the state treats as a felony. But here’s the problem: If the authorities weren’t willing to charge the shooter under current law, they certainly would not have “red flagged” him. Please OPPOSE all gun control. Instead, please pass Rep. Richard Hudson’s concealed carry reciprocity bill (H.R. 38) and repeal gun-free school zones (H.R. 3200).

78% of gun owners consider themselves “single issue” voters on guns Gun Owners of America has released a poll of more than 17,000 voters indicating that 98% will not vote to reelect a legislator who votes for “red flag” gun grabs. Not only that, the GOA poll found that 78% of gun owners consider themselves “single issue” voters on the subject of guns and the Second Amendment. Sadly, some legislators have to find this out the hard way. In the lead up to the 2016 elections, Senator Kelly Ayotte earned a “D” rating from a state gun rights group after she voted for cloture on the Feinstein semi-auto ban. Many New Hampshire gun owners thus boycotted Ayotte in the 2016 election, and she lost by 1,017 votes! GOA’s Senior Vice President Erich Pratt went on Fox News and used Ayotte’s blunder as an example of what can happen to Republicans who violate their oath and support gun control. Then, Rush Limbaugh replayed GOA’s appearance on his national show and reiterated that it is a “possibility” that Republicans lose their majority after supporting gun control. Gun control is a political loser. So please oppose the three gun bills that were recently reported out of the Judiciary Committee: 1) Magazine bans that will endanger law-abiding gun owners facing multiple attackers (H.R. 1186); 2) “Red Flag” Gun Confiscation Orders (H.R. 1236) that will throw out Due Process; and, 3) Hate crimes gun ban (H.R. 2708) which will impose a lifetime gun ban on gun owners for non-violent actions -- primarily because they held views Democrats don’t like.
