No More Amazon Smile Means a Huge Cut to our Legal Defense Fund

Dear John,  

It should come as no surprise that left-wing anti-gun cooperations don’t support our mission.  

However, you have helped us carry out our mission. And we are very grateful for that.  

Thousands of you have supported GOF (Gun Owners Foundation) over the years.  And many have used Amazon Smile to contribute.  

Unfortunately, that is ending on February 20th, 2023, as Amazon is permanently shutting down their charitable Smile program.

So, what does that mean for GOF? We have received over $473,000 in donations from Amazon Smile through November 2022. That’s a lot of funding.  

Your contributions through Amazon have helped GOF to pursue victorious lawsuits all over the country.  

As you know, we are challenging several of Joe Biden’s unconstitutional gun bans, such as the recent ATF pistol brace rule that will cover up to 40 million guns. (See the Breitbart article.)

Your contributions through Amazon have also allowed our attorneys to file FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests that have uncovered ATF abuses.

One of our FOIAs eventually led the gun community to learn about the ATF’s massive gun registry. The ATF has compiled an illegal gun registry of nearly one billion records, and this led Congressman Michael Cloud (R-TX) to introduce legislation repealing it.

While we expected the Amazon funding would one day come to an end, it does pose a challenge as GOF continues to increase our number of lawsuits, briefs and FOIA requests.

That’s why I am asking you, one of our most active supporters, to answer the call.  

When you donate $5, $10 or $20 monthly to our litigation fund, not only can we make up the ground lost by the Amazon Smile program, but we can push even harder knowing that supporters like you are behind us.

This administration and their state counter parts are laser focused on destroying the Second Amendment. We have fought and won in some of the toughest battlegrounds in Oregon, New York and now we are focusing on Illinois.  

We are counting on you to help make up critical funds and do it all without the help of corporate giants like Amazon.  

Their hope in shutting down this program may have been to hurt us and other organizations that they didn’t agree with. But with Patriots like you, we won’t skip a beat.

In Liberty,
