In the wake of the hearing on ‘Red Flag Gun Seizures’ a few days ago in the US Senate Judiciary Committee, gun owners across the state have been calling us in disbelief. That’s because not a single US Senator stood up in opposition to this legislation and fought for gun owners or the Second Amendment. Not a single one! More, all of the witnesses testified in favor of the bill.
With the hearing on ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation just days away from kicking off in Washington, D.C., gun owners across the country are furious! Afterall, this hearing is not taking place in the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives at the direction of Nancy Pelosi. Instead, the Republican-controlled Senate is conducting these hearings, meaning that we are being betrayed by our ‘friends.’ But it gets much worse than that. To find
We’ve just released our new ad entitled: “Stop Red Flag Gun Seizures!” The ad encourages Second Amendment supporters to contact Missouri Senators Roy Blunt and Josh Hawley, insisting that they oppose “Red Flag Gun Seizures” (Senate Bill 7) which are to be heard in the Senate as early next week. This goes doubly true for Senator Hawley, as he serves on the Judiciary Committee where he can help kill this
Earlier today, our bill to rid Missouri of deadly ‘Gun Free Zones’ was heard in the House General Laws Committee. If you were able to join me in Jeff City and testify in support of our right to keep and bear arms, thank you! If you weren’t, you may not know that Michael Bloomberg’s front-groups were out in force, trying to convince the members of the committee to kill the
It was a busy week in the fight for gun rights in Jeff City. Our bill to repeal ‘Gun Free Zones’ (SB 121) was heard in the Senate’s Transportation and Public Safety Committee earlier this week. Sponsored by Senator Burlison, this legislation would rid Missouri of ‘Gun Free Zones’ — areas that are ‘off-limits’ to gun owners due to state law, but are the favorite target of every madman looking
It’s been a very busy week in Jeff City as we work to repeal deadly ‘Gun Free Zones!’ Our Political Director, Alexandra Salsman, spent Thursday morning testifying in the Senate Infrastructure and Public Safety Committee on legislation to repeal ‘Gun Free Zones’ on mass transit systems. Our message, on behalf of our members, was simple: the spirit of this bill is great, but it doesn’t go nearly far enough! At
The 2019 session of the Missouri General Assembly is well under way, and I have been working for days to finalize MOFC’s legislative goals for the year, along with the budget we will need to be effective. But I have to level with you. With recent mass shootings at the Jewish synagogue in Pittsburgh and the nightclub in Thousand Oaks, CA, I am becoming convinced that our initial plan of
The first week of the 2019 legislative session is behind us. And while swearing in ceremonies and other procedural events dominated much of the first week, over a dozen nasty gun control bills have already been filed in Jeff City! And insiders report that more gun control bills are coming very soon. But we’ve also had our bills to repeal deadly ‘Gun Free Zones’ introduced this week, as well. With
I take no great pleasure in writing this email. But it’s an email I have to write, to prepare you for the coming onslaught of ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation not only here in Missouri — but across the country. ‘Red Flag Gun Seizure’ legislation would empower left-wing judges to order your firearms confiscated without due process. No charges, no day in court, no conviction of anything whatsoever — just
As we fight to make sure that not a single gun control bill makes any progress in the upcoming legislative session, the Missouri Firearms Coalition is going to do all we can to finally rid Missouri of deadly ‘Gun Free Zones!’ As a reminder, we have over a dozen state-mandated ‘Gun Free Zones’ here in Missouri! These are places where you and I can not carry a firearm for self-defense,
