In South Dakota, multiple bills dealing with limiting the Executive Branch’s power to curtail gun rights during a disaster have cleared committee and are headed to the floor for a vote!
In Wyoming, the Senate Majority Leader is vowing immediate action on legislation to get rid of deadly ‘Gun Free Zones,’ a vote that may happen this week!
In Iowa, the House and Senate have passed a Right to Keep and Bear Arms Constitutional Amendment that will go before the voters next fall.
In Utah and Montana, Constitutional Carry passed the legislature and was signed into law by the Governor in both states.
I could go on and on. The only upside to Joe Biden’s war against gun owners in Washington is that legislators in ‘red states’ are suddenly getting back to work, boldly fighting for gun owners in their state legislatures!
Here in Missouri, while the House has passed the Second Amendment Preservation Act (H.B. 85,) Senate leaders have been sitting on the bill for the last two weeks. And that’s exactly why I am writing you today, because this is simply unacceptable.
Tell the Missouri Senate to Pass SAPA!
As a reminder, the Second Amendment Preservation Act (SAPA) would shut down Joe Biden’s gun control agenda here in Missouri by requiring Missouri peace officers to enforce Missouri laws where firearms, ammo, and accessories are concerned.
A federal AR-15 ban would fall flat on its face in Missouri.
So would a federal magazine ban law, a federal ban on the .50 caliber rifle, a federal law demanding psychiatric tests for gun owners and anything else that comes out of the bowels of the Biden White House!
And this is no fantasy legislation.
SAPA legislation is based off the Constitutional anti-commandeering doctrine which states that the federal government may not simply ‘commandeer’ the states’ sovereign authority, forcing them to enforce federal laws.
What’s more, the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the right of the states to nullify (ignore) federal law in decisions that stretch back hundreds of years! See more on that here and here.
So it’s clear Missouri can ignore Biden’s gun control mandates, if the leaders of our ‘pro-gun Senate’ stop blocking House Bill 85!
Tell Your Senator to Pass H.B. 85!
In his press release eight days ago, Joe Biden made it clear that he is 100% committed to making it a crime for you to buy an AR-15 or any magazine that holds over ten rounds of ammunition.
What’s more, he and Nancy Pelosi are desperately trying to pass a national gun registration program, via ‘Universal Background Checks!’
This isn’t just talk — these are real threats.
That’s why it’s high time that the Missouri Senate pass H.B. 85 and provide protections to gun owners in Missouri!
When you’re done, please donate to the Missouri Firearms Coalition so that we can continue to fight for SAPA and to expose the dreadful gun control bills that are being pushed in the legislature.
We are on the ground fighting for you, but we need your help!
So please make a generous donation today!
For Missouri,

P.S. With the State Senate coming back into session today, it’s urgent that you send your PRE-WRITTEN EMAIL demanding action on the Second Amendment Preservation Act!
Tell the Missouri Senate to Pass SAPA!
This legislation (H.B. 85) would nullify Joe Biden’s gun control agenda here in Missouri and has already passed the House, but is being held up in the Senate.
