ALERT: Tell Congress not to pass gun control during the “lame duck” session. >>

John,
We may have elected a terrific line-up of pro-2A candidates, but we’re not in
the clear just yet…
The time between the November elections and the swearing in of new members of
Congress and our next President is known as the “lame duck” session.
It’s during this period that Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer can try and ram
through any last-minute gun control packages before the door hits them on the
way out.
When Obama left the White House, gun owners had to fight to repeal numerous
executive orders imposing gun control that he signed on his way out — including
a gun ban for Social Security beneficiaries and a lead ammunition ban.
And just last week, Senate Democrats held a gun control hearing to push more
restrictions before Republicans take over in January.
And with multiple pieces of legislation on the horizon – including an
authorization of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and an omnibus
spending bill – there will be plenty of opportunities for anti-gunners to try
and sneak in gun control measures like “assault weapons” bans or Universal
Registration Checks.
In the past, anti-gunners have attempted to hide Red Flag Gun Confiscation
Laws and other gun control measures in the National Defense Authorization Act.
But GOA exposed it – and thanks to advocacy from our members like you, we
defeated it.
Once again, GOA will be vigilant in opposing ANY and ALL gun control measures
that Senate Democrats try to sneak into any bills during the “lame duck”
session.
And there is some hope that we will avoid lame duck gun control.
Speaker Mike Johnson—who helped GOA force Joe Biden to sign the veterans gun
ban repeal and a historic ATF budget cut—is fighting to push the funding debate
out of the lame duck and into the next Congress.
This means that instead of Joe Biden and the Democrats in the Senate
determining the FY 2025 spending levels, a Second Amendment-friendly White
House, House, and Senate can write the bill instead.
And if it’s GOA allies writing the bill, we have a chance to avoid gun control
and permanently eliminate the veteran gun ban. We might also be able to defund
the ATF, destroy the illegal gun registry, and more!
It won’t be easy to prevent gun control in the lame duck, but it is possible
with your help.
Truth be told: GOA members like you are the backbone of our 2A lobbying force.
When legislators get an earful from their constituents back home telling them
to keep their hands off our Second Amendment rights, they fall in line. And
after the Silent Majority made our voices heard in the November landslide
election, the Washington Swamp knows that they better listen to the American
people.
That’s why GOA is asking you to begin our massive grassroots advocacy campaign
right now to stop anti-gunners from passing gun control during the “lame duck”
session.
Please add your name to our pre-written letter to your Representative and two
Senators telling them to oppose any and all gun control measures during the
“lame duck” session. <[link removed]>

P.S. While the Senate is the key chamber that needs to hear from you, we also
know that with Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up, House members can get
complacent and simply want to strike a deal. That’s why we’re also targeting
the House to ensure they protect the Second Amendment during the “lame duck”
session.Add your name to our pre-written letter to alert your Representative
and two Senators. <[link removed]>
