But our battle to defend your 2A rights in 2024 has only just begun…


<[link removed]>


John,


Thanks to your support, GOA and our allies are beating the anti-gun extremists
in court.


Yesterday, a federal judge held that California’s required background checks
on ammunition sales violated the Second Amendment, and ordered California to
stop enforcing that law.


And earlier in January, GOA’s attorneys were part of a team effort to strike
down several “Gun-Free Zones” in California. We successfully encouraged a panel
on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals to prevent anti-gunners from enforcing
their ban on carrying firearms throughout much of the state.


Our battle to defend your God-given rights in 2024 has only just begun. We’re
fighting the anti-gun lobby all across the nation, and at all levels – all the
way to the Supreme Court!


But to keep beating the well-funded anti-gun machine and their army of
bloodthirsty lawyers, bureaucrats, and lobbyists, we humbly rely on the support
of gun owners like YOU to ensure we have the resources to stay in every single
battle until the bitter end.


Please make a contribution to GOA’s Legal Defense Fund to help us keep winning
the fight to defend your Second Amendment rights in court all throughout 2024.

Below are just some of the legal battles that GOA has been involved with
during the past month and a half:


* GOA has been fighting the bump stock ban since 2018. In fact, GOA’s case
was the first one to achieve a victory in the courts – a victory that occurred
in the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. Now, a bump stock case will be heard at
the Supreme Court, and earlier this month when GOA filed a supporting brief on
behalf of this case, plaintiff Michael Cargill conveyed “a big huge thank you”
to GOA members.

* GOA submitted a brief before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals challenging
California’s ban on standard capacity magazines.

* GOA filed a complaint in federal district court challenging California’s
unconstitutional and costly requirement that FFLs record video and audio of
everything that occurs in their stores – and in some cases, in their homes.

* GOA filed an appeal to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, where GOA is
challenging the national waiting period for firearm purchases by
18–20-year-olds.

* GOA is suing the ATF in federal court on behalf of hundreds of gun stores
around the country, and we are challenging the ATF’s Zero Tolerance policy as
unconstitutional in two separate lawsuits.

* GOA filed suit in Virginia, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and Tennessee – and we
are arguing in each jurisdiction to strike down bans on carrying firearms in
public parks.

* GOA filed its opening brief in the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals over the
New Mexico governor’s unconstitutional order, which banned firearm carry in
Albuquerque.

* In a Michigan federal court, GOA is seeking to overturn the ATF’s refusal
to allow Michigan’s concealed weapons license holders to bypass NICS background
checks during firearm purchases.

* GOA also filed two friend-of-the-court briefs in two cases before the U.S.
Supreme Court. One challenge would prevent the ability of government officials
to squelch the First Amendment rights of gun organizations. The second would
limit the ability of government agencies (like the ATF) to bypass the role of
Congress by issuing regulations that carry the force of law.

We also know that we can NEVER blindly put our faith in Congress to defend the
Second Amendment.


While we will always hold representatives’ feet to the fire to get them to
act, we know thatno one will fight harder for our God-given rights than
ourselves.


That’s why GOA is preparing to fill the void left by Congress’ inaction to
push for concealed carry reciprocity by suing states that are preventing
out-of-state citizens from carrying in their jurisdictions.


But to win all of the many battles that lie ahead in 2024, GOA will need
support from as many patriots as possible to protect our God-given rights.


So please, make a contribution to GOA’s Legal Defense Fund to help us keep
winning the fight to defend your Second Amendment rights in court all
throughout 2024.
