Help us
repeal a gun control law that’s disarmed 250,000 Americans.
Dear John,
What you do right now could make a difference for millions of
future veterans, and maybe millions of civilian gun owners.
But time is running out for you to act, John.
Please
go here right now to tell your Congressman and Senators to vote
AGAINST any funding bill or continuing resolution that does not repeal
the Veteran Gun Ban.
Right now there are hundreds of thousands of veterans struggling
with their health, or who might just need someone to manage their
finances.
But the Veterans Administration is making lists of those veterans
and turning them over to the federal government, who flags these brave
men and women as people banned from owing firearms.
We must be clear to you – these American service members are not
threats to anyone!
In fact, banning people from owning guns without due process or
even an accusation is so abusive that mental health professionals and
even the liberal ACLU has spoken out against the Veteran Gun Ban.
And if they can do this to veterans, it’s only a matter of time
before any American who talked to a therapist or designated someone to
manage finances is disarmed and stripped of their constitutional
rights! In fact, GOA defeated President Obama’s attempts to expand
this gun ban to cover Social Security beneficiaries several years
ago!
It’s time for Congress to stop this massive gun ban before it
disarms another innocent veteran or is expanded.
So
please, we need you to go here right now to tell your
Congressman and Senators to vote AGAINST any funding bill or
continuing resolution that does not fully repeal the Veteran Gun Ban.
As you may recall, both the House and Senate passed bipartisan
amendments to repeal the Veteran Gun Ban after an intense lobbying
campaign by GOA and our members. This language is reportedly being
negotiated right now.
Since GOA-backed language already passed the House and Senate,
there shouldn’t be anything to negotiate unless weak-kneed legislators
are trying to water down the repeal language and turn it into
something worse.
Time is running out because this week, Congress will try to pass an
omnibus spending bill or continuing resolution in order to prevent the
federal government from shutting down.
You and I have a chance, but only for the next day or so, to knock
gun grabbers back on their heels by insisting upon the original
bipartisan language to repeal the Veteran Gun Ban.
You and I must demand that Congress include language which fully
repeals the Veteran Guns Ban because m.anything else other than a
complete repeal is a betrayal of veterans and the Second
Amendment.
Anything else other than a complete repeal of the Veteran Gun Ban
is a betrayal of veterans and the Second Amendment.
You and I must make it clear to Congress there are NO excuses for
compromise.
Congress doesn’t have much longer to either fund or shut down most
of the federal government.
What you do right now could make a difference for millions of
future veterans, and maybe millions of civilian gun owners.
So
please, we need you to go here right now to tell your
Congressman and Senators to vote AGAINST any funding bill or
continuing resolution that does not fully repeal the Veteran Gun
Ban.
In Liberty,
Erich Pratt Senior Vice President Gun Owners of America
