AN IMPORTANT APPEAL FROM JON FLEISCHMAN

Hey, it’s Jon. I’m recording this quick video to ask you for your help.

I don’t do a lot of organizational fundraising, mainly because there aren’t many organizations I care enough about to raise money for. But there is one I want to single out and ask for your support.

It’s called the California Rifle & Pistol Association. I’m a proud member of this organization, and I’m proud because of the work they do. They are on the vanguard of protecting our Second Amendment rights here in California.

As they say — and as I say — Second Amendment rights are for all Americans, even those of us who are stuck here in California, where the liberals in charge of the state seem determined to restrict the use of firearms at every turn.

But the California Rifle & Pistol Association is fighting back. They’re active on multiple fronts. They lobby in the state legislature to stop bad bills. They work in local communities through chapters up and down the state to prevent harmful ordinances in cities and counties.

And perhaps the biggest reason I want you to join me in supporting CRPA is their leadership in pro–Second Amendment litigation. They’re on the front lines in courtrooms across the state.

I could go on at length about how this all works, but I don’t have to. If you’re watching this on my Substack, this video accompanies a great one-on-one interview I did with Chuck Michel, the president of CRPA. I encourage you to watch it — you’ll see firsthand what they’re doing and why it matters.

You can also visit www.CRPA.org to learn more.

What Gavin Newsom, Attorney General Bonta, and the rest of the Left are doing in Sacramento is being fought through litigation. And CRPA is making a difference. It’s working — but it isn’t free.

I AM TRYING TO RAISE $2,500 IN PLEDGES TO CRPA. IN FACT I AM, OUT OF MY OWN POCKET, PLEDGING TO MATCH THE FIRST $500 THAT COMES IN!

WILL YOU JOIN MY EFFORT AND MAKE A PLEDGE?

$10/$25/$50/$100/$250/$500/$1000 - Or you are comfortable with. Once you have pledged, I will personally follow up to give you the information to fulfill the pledge via check or credit card!

YOU CAN PLEDGE ONE OF FOUR WAYS!

  1. Put it in a comment below! Others will see this! Again, if you just pledge an amount I will follow up.

  2. If you got this as an email, just hit reply and send a pledge amount!

    (Let me know if your pledge is anonymous.)

  3. Use this pledge link!

  4. Drop me a message…

    (Let me know if your pledge is anonymous.)

    Message Jon Fleischman

Your donation (if made to their foundation, that funds litigation, will be tax-deductable!)

THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. OUR RIGHTS ARE TOO IMPORTANT NOT TO FIGHT FOR THEM WITH ALL THAT WE HAVE!

Jon
