Veterans gun ban
Dudley Brown
Now is the time to repeal the Veterans Gun Ban.
Throughout the years of the Obama Administration over 200,000 veterans were deprived of their gun rights.
And all of them are still under this onerous gun ban!
These American service members LOST their Second Amendment rights with no due process whatsoever, and with virtually no way to be removed from the gun ban list.
No day in court, no innocent until proven guilty, just a ban on their Second Amendment rights.
But there is good news! Congress now has the opportunity to overturn this veteran-targeted gun ban.
The National Association for Gun Rights is working to ensure that NO veteran is stripped of his or her gun rights in the future, and that EVERY single one who was unjustly added to the ban is removed.
Congress is currently considering H.R. 1181, sponsored by Rep. Phil Roe (R-TN).
This legislation stops the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) from partaking in the unconstitutional act of automatically reporting U.S. Military Veterans to the anti-gun Brady-NICS database without due process.
This is HUGE. . .
. . . but there’s a catch.
Over 200,000 veterans are STILL on the NICS gun ban list.
And they’ll still be on the NICS gun ban list if this legislation is passed and signed into law.
This is the problem I have with Rep. Roe’s bill.
Unfortunately it does NOT clearly address those 200,000 individuals who’ve already been stripped of their right to keep and bear arms!
These are men and woman who SERVED, and this is how they are being treated?!?!
Here’s how this gun ban is triggered:
A veteran heads over to his local VA office, he fills out a few forms assigning a fiduciary to manage his benefits, and then somebody at the office slaps a crazy label on his file, inputting all of his info into the federal NICS firearms registry, banning them from owning guns for LIFE.
And now over 200,000 veterans are in that database, unable to exercise the Second Amendment rights they fought to defend.
That’s why Congress, the Attorney General, and the White House must act to restore the gun rights of those over 200,000 veterans who have lost their right to keep and bear arms.
It’s not enough to just prevent new names from being added to the government gun ban list.
Repealing the Veterans Gun Ban without definitively removing our nation’s heroes from a gun ban list is NOT ACCEPTABLE!
Because of the support of you and the millions of other National Association for Gun Rights supporters we have already made a lot of progress in repealing Obama-era gun control.
Since the start of President Trump’s term, with your help we’ve already repealed the Social Security Gun Ban and stopped Obama’s last minute Lead Ammo Ban.
There is no reason for us to ask for half a loaf -- in this case, it’s one tenth of a loaf, if that -- when we have the support to get everything we want. We must make sure the 200,000 affected veterans are not left behind.
With your support we will let Congress know that gun owners will not accept anything less than a full repeal of the Veterans Gun Ban!
With your signature, please also consider making your most generous contribution of $100.
I know I’m asking a lot, but it won’t be an easy fight to restore the Second Amendment rights of our nation’s veterans.
It will take a ton more Second Amendment supporters like you getting involved to get this done.
But if $100 is too much at this time, please at least consider $50 or $25.
We must do everything we can to support our nations veterans who are being denied their Second Amendment rights!
Please don’t delay, sign today!
For Freedom,

P.S. The National Association for Gun Rights is working to ensure that NO veteran is stripped of his or her gun rights in the future, and that EVERY single one who was unjustly added to Obama’s Veteran Gun Ban is removed.
Congress is currently considering H.R. 1181, sponsored by Rep. Phil Roe (R-TN).
This legislation stops the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) from partaking in the unconstitutional act of automatically reporting U.S. Military Veteran’s to the anti-gun Brady-NICS database without due process.
The only problem with this bill is that it does not address the more than 200,000 veterans who have already had their rights stripped!
Over 200,000 veterans will STILL be on the NICS gun ban list even if H.R. 1181 is signed into law.
These are men and woman who SERVED! We must be sure NONE of them are behind when we repeal the Veterans Gun Ban.
And also consider making your most generous contribution of $100, $50, or even $25 after you sign.
