Friend --

Just last week?U.S. House Bill 2377 was passed out of the House Judiciary Committee. This federal red flag or extreme risk protection order (ERPO) legislation would undoubtedly erode our constitutionally protected individual rights. ?Not only does this legislation trample on gun rights, but due process rights are ignored as well. We must rally gun rights supporters and proponents of individual liberty to alert Congress to how poorly this bill is viewed by the American people.

Also known as the?Federal Extreme Risk Protection Order Act,?U.S. House Bill 2377 would allow for a petitioner to request an extreme risk protection order on someone they deem as a threat. ?Once an individual is deemed a threat under this legislation, they would be required to surrender their firearms or law enforcement could confiscate them, even without the individual being charged with a crime! ?So if someone were to deem you as a threat, your gun rights would be taken away, your due process rights would be ignored and?you may have to wait as much as 180 days to have your rights restored. This is so backward, it's embarrassing. Accused individuals are innocent until being proven guilty, not vice versa.

To help FPC defeat this bill, we must act now! The next step for this legislation will be a vote on the House floor.?To write your federal legislators and demand that they OPPOSE HB 2377, simply click one of the "Vote Against Red Flag Law" buttons in this email.?We need to remind those who are "pro-gun" and/or "pro-liberty" that we are watching and taking note of who is on the side of protecting constitutional rights and who is a co-conspirator in torpedoing our rights. ?FPC has provided a sample email for you to review, edit, and personalize prior to sending it off to your legislators.
