COVID-19: Threat
to Second Amendment
NRA-ILA
Nothing is more important than protecting ourselves and
our families -- especially during these times of uncertainty. Yet, some
anti-gun lawmakers are exploiting the COVID-19 pandemic to deny you and your
loved ones your fundamental right to self-defense and your Second Amendment
rights.
These anti-gun and anti-self defense extremists deem gun
stores "non-essential," they shut down issuance of firearm permits,
and, in some locations, they have created extreme delays for background checks
required for firearm transfers. Some jurisdictions have even put added
restrictions on firearm transfers, making it all but impossible for many
law-abiding Americans to exercise their Second Amendment rights.
All of this is happening against a backdrop of reported
prisoner furloughs and law enforcement only arresting for the most serious of
crimes.
Just like you, we know that's wrong.
That is why the NRA will keep a constant watch on what is
happening nationwide and will work diligently to ensure that you are able to
defend yourself and your family during these unprecedented times. In the past
four decades, your NRA has led the way to pass Right-to-Carry, Castle Doctrine,
and most important for the current crisis, protection against gun confiscation
during declared emergencies. This time is no different.
We hope you find this website useful. Please use it to
stay updated on what's happening in your town or state and across the country.
If you need help or would like to alert us to something happening in your town
or state, please contact us here or send us an email at COVID19@nrahq.org.
During these difficult times, your NRA is keeping
vigilant watch over your right to buy a gun and to make sure you are able to
defend yourself and your family. The NRA fights for all law-abiding
gun owners, whether they can afford to donate or not. We understand times are
tough. But, if you have the means, please help us keep fighting against
those politicians who are determined to strip away our right to self-defense
and their billionaire backers. Every dollar counts. We thank you in
advance.
If you are unable to help us at this time, please drop us
a line and let us know how you and your family are doing. We are always
grateful to hear from our members and supporters. Again, a big THANK YOU from
all of us here at the NRA.
Stay safe.
