GOA Winning Nationwide
Dear John,
As you have probably seen, Gun Owners of America has been all over the news
lately, racking up wins around the country in the defense of the Second
Amendment.
Here are some of our recent victories and battles across the nation:
GOA and GOF secure a Temporary Restraining Order against New Mexico carry ban!
<>
On September 13th, in U.S. District Court, Gun Owners of America (GOA) and the
Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) secured a TRO against New Mexico Governor Michelle
Lujan Grisham’s gross and egregious violation of the U.S. Constitution through
her “public health order” to unlawfully ban the carrying of firearms in
Albuquerque.
GOA’s Senior Vice President, Erich Pratt said:
“We are ecstatic that Judge Urias agreed with us that Governor Grisham simply
can’t trash the Constitution whenever she sees fit. Gun Owners of America will
continue pressing to extend this Temporary Restraining Order into a permanent
order. And we will not rest until all those in New Mexico who played a role in
this action are held accountable for this gross assault on our rights.”

store!
Gun Owners of America (GOA) and the Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) are excited to

95% of comments on Biden’s lead ammo ban were opposed to the rule
<>
Those who despise the Second Amendment never seem to stop. So far, they have
been unable to completely ban firearms, so their latest attack on our gun
rights involves banning commonly used ammunition.
As GOA warned our members last year, the first step in this process involves
the Biden Administration’s plans to ban lead ammunition on eight National
Wildlife Refuges in the eastern United States. This first round of bans will
not take effect until 2026, but it is common knowledge in the nation’s capital
that this Administration does not intend to stop with these eight areas.
Mark Jones, GOA’s National Director of Hunter Outreach, pointed out that the
FWS had received 18,564 comments, and 17,608 were from GOA members and
supporters opposing the rule.

GOA helped to end the special session on Red Flags in Tennessee
Governor Lousy Lee called this special session for one purpose: to pass red
flag gun confiscation in the Volunteer State. On this front, he miserably
failed.
Gun owners have no one else to thank more than themselves. Your enduring and
relentless emails, phone calls, and grassroots pressure made the concept of red
flags so impalpable that such legislation made no meaningful progress.
This is a big win! A few months ago, some believed that red flags could
become law in Tennessee. Your activism killed the idea completely.
