On Guns, Joe Biden is Full of It
<[link removed]>
Presumptive Democratic 2020 Presidential Nominee Joe Biden is not one
for clarity, tact, or a firm grasp of the facts. However, even an
American public that has long been aware of his shortcomings was taken
aback this week when the former vice president launched an unhinged
attack on a pro-Second Amendment auto worker. Aside from further
exposing a waning control of his faculties, the exchange revealed
Biden’s deep antipathy towards the Second Amendment, his profound
ignorance on the firearms issue, and his willingness to lie for
political advantage.

National Alert: Champaign Illinois First Locality to Cite “Emergency
Powers” to Ban Gun Transfers
<[link removed]>
As uncertainty about the COVID-19 outbreak continues to swirl, it is
clear that anti-gun extremists and elected officials will use fear of
the unknown to advance their agenda to undermine our firearms freedom.
Not surprisingly, it didn’t take them long to try and quietly pass
and implement gun control schemes while Americans are focused on
ensuring the health, safety and welfare of themselves and their
families.

In NRA Supported Lawsuit, Oregon’s Top Court Rejects Flawed “Gun
Safety” Ballot Title, Description
<[link removed]>
The NRA has a great record of ensuring that the language used for
ballot measures in Oregon is fair, accurate and clear. In 2018, an
NRA-backed challenge successfully opposed the language of proposed
ballot titles for Initiative Petition 43 (a failed “assault
weapons” and magazines ban) and Initiative Petition 44 (likewise
withdrawn).

Export Reform Rules Take Effect After Anti-Gun States (Mostly) Strike
Out in Court
<[link removed]>
On March 9, President Trump’s historic Export Reform initiative
officially got underway, as companion rules published by the U.S.
Departments of State and Commerce took effect. These rules are aimed
at modernizing America’s regime for exports of non-military firearms
and ammunition and will promote both U.S. businesses and national
security. An effort to block implementation of the rules by the
attorneys general of 20 states and the District of Columbia largely
failed, with the judge suspending only a narrow portion of the State
Department rule that pertains to so-called “3-D printed firearms.”
