Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" is one of the NRA’s biggest wins yet.
“The NRA has stood with me from the very beginning, and with your vote, I will stand strong for your rights and liberties.”
— Trump at the 2024 NRA annual meeting
Hi John,
Donald Trump promised the NRA he’d stand with them. Now they’re celebrating — and our communities are paying the price.
With the passage of Trump's so-called “Big Beautiful Bill,” the NRA proudly announced that this legislation will deliver the “biggest blow to the National Firearms Act in nearly a century.” And they’re right.
Let’s break down why this matters:
- The National Firearms Act (1934) created strict rules for silencers and short-barreled rifles and shotguns, requiring a $200 tax and federal registration.
- These weapons are highly lethal and easily concealable, which is why they’ve been regulated for nearly a century.
- Trump’s new law removes the $200 tax, making these dangerous firearms more accessible — a clear handout to the gun industry and a threat to public safety.
This isn't just policy. It’s a values test. And Trump failed it.
His so-called “law and order” rhetoric rings hollow. By siding with the gun lobby, he has put corporate interests over public safety, and communities across the country will pay the price.
