Federal Suppressor Ban Reintroduced

WASHINGTON, DC - On Thursday, April 27th, U.S. Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ), and Congresswoman Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ-12) reintroduced the Help Empower Americans to Respond (HEAR) Act – bicameral federal anti-gun legislation that would ban the sale, manufacturing, transfer, and possession of suppressors nationwide.
The Bill would ban all current and future suppressor ownership and authorize a 90-day "buyback" period in which current owners would need to turn in their legally owned suppressors or face criminal charges.
The press release issued by Sen. Menendez is chocked full of inaccuracies, highlighting the intellectual dishonesty of politicians and anti-gunners we've come to expect when it comes to the topic of suppressors.
The American Suppressor Association is unequivocally opposed to any attempt to ban suppressors. We are unwavering in our support of the Second Amendment and the individual right to possess suppressors. We will fight this tooth and nail. With the facts on our side, we will succeed.

At the American Suppressor Association, we believe every law-abiding citizen has the right to protect their hearing while exercising their inalienable Second Amendment rights. Just like you shouldn’t have to pay a poll tax to vote, you should not have to pay $200 to protect your hearing. That's why we helped write the Hearing Protection Act in 2015, and why we continue to lead the charge for its passage.
