Don’t Let Anti-Gunners Drown Out Your Voice — Submit Your Comment Today!




Dear John,



For over three decades, a dangerous government policy has stripped law-abiding
Americans of their constitutional right to keep and bear arms—often without due
process.



The “Schumer Amendment,” passed in 1992, handed the ATF unchecked power to
permanently ban gun ownership for anyone with certain non-violent offenses or
even short-term mental health commitments.



But now, the Department of Justice has issued a historic rule that could
restore these rights for the first time in 32 years. This is our chance to push
back and ensure that gun control advocates aren’t the only voices the DOJ hears.



The window to submit public comments closes in just three weeks. Make your
voice count while there’s still time.

In 1992, Chuck Schumer passed an amendment directing the ATF to permanently
deny Second Amendment rights to people who committednon-violent crimes.



The “Schumer Amendment” added to the dangerous precedent of empowering the
government to act as the ultimate arbiter of our God-given rights.



For more than thirty years, GOA has received countless letters from would-be
gun owners asking us to fight for the restoration of their constitutionally
protected right to keep and bear arms.



For example, under the “Schumer Amendment,” anyone who was involuntarily
committed to a mental institution for even a short period of time faces an
unconstitutional LIFETIME GUN BAN.



But now, we finally have good news to share… The Department of Justice has
issued a rule to allow for federal RESTORATION of gun rights for the first time
in 32 years!



With the DOJ requesting comments from the American people regarding this rule,
we need GOA members like you to flood their inbox with comments showing
widespread public support for gun rights restoration.



This rule is a massive step in the right direction towards stopping unelected
ATF bureaucrats from having the power to strip you of a right that is protected
by the U.S. Constitution.



But make no mistake: gun control groups will ask their members to do the same
– and flood the DOJ’s inbox with anti-gun vitriol. That’s why we need to be
certain that for every 1 anti-gun letter the DOJ receives, they receive 3
letters from GOA members.

[TAKE ACTION: ALERT THE DOJ
<[link removed]>
>>]



Feel free to copy and paste GOA's pre-written comments found below:


I strongly support the Department of Justice’s rule to allow for federal
restoration of gun rights pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 925(c).



If the Trump Administration is serious about wanting to rein in unelected
bureaucrats who have abused their power and waged war on individuals' rights
and freedom, then this rule must be implemented quickly.



Unelected ATF bureaucrats should not have the power to permanently deny
certain Americans from ever exercising a constitutionally protected right to
keep and bear arms.



Since the “Schumer Amendment” went into effect in 1992, thousands of would-be
gun owners have contacted Gun Owners of America, asking for their
constitutionally protected rights to be restored.



It is unjust to strip those Americans of a constitutional right – for life –
especially a right that provides personal safety and security, and a right that
is explicitly prohibited from being “infringed” upon.



I urge the Department of Justice to move forward and fully implement this rule
through the creation of a formal process to ensure speedy rights restoration.



In Liberty,










Erich Pratt
