Gun Rights

The Biden administration finalized a new rule last week described by Attorney General Merrick Garland as a “historic step” in the “fight against gun violence.” It aims to increase the number of background checks on gun sales by expanding the pool of people who must obtain a federal firearms license. “There is a large and

In my last column, I suggested that Republican overreaching and corruption provide Arkansas Democrats with an opportunity to gain ground politically and win elections in 2026. That opportunity is real.  But existing political problems can’t be overcome until their existence is recognized, the causes identified, and the core issues resolved. One of those issues is

Yesterday, the Kentucky General Assembly adjourned sine die from the 2024 legislative session. This session saw a great victory for law-abiding gun owners with the passage of HB 357, which passed into law without the Governor’s signature.

Currently, the exercise of the Second Amendment is in the crosshairs of President Biden’s ATF, which has put forth a new rule to change and/or expand the definition of

On Sunday, HB24-1292 the semi-auto ban, received final passage in the House and has been transmitted to the Senate where it awaits a committee assignment.  HB24-1292’s broad definition of “assault weapon” bans all semi-automatic rifles including America’s most common rifle, the AR-15, along with countless other rifles, pistols, and shotguns that Coloradans use for hunting, target

Victoria Spartz’s late entry into the 5th Congressional District primary has put her reelection chances at risk as she continues to struggle to fundraise with one month to go until election day.   Her most well-funded opponent, Gaylor Electric CEO and Noblesville state Rep. Chuck Goodrich, has raised more than six times what Spartz has

So-called “universal” background checks were back in the news last week. The Biden administration and the regime press were promoting the impression that ATF’s new “engaged in the business” rule closed the non-existent “gun show loophole” and prohibited all private firearm transfers – it did nothing of the sort.

Former President Donald Trump‘s supporters launched a new website highlighting Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s “radical” record as the independent candidate appears poised to siphon votes in November.

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said former President Donald Trump “knows” who can beat him in the 2024 election, referencing a new attack website launched against the independent.

Because I wrangled press credentials for an RFK Jr. event in Salt Lake in November, I now get regular emails from the campaign. To be completely honest, the fundraising requests from RFK Jr. are a refreshing break from the fundraising requests I get every day from my local GOP candidates. And they are more fun

According to recent data from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Oregon has seen a recent surge in firearm background checks. As it stands, gun stores are required by law to conduct a background check for every gun sale. But dealers who sell weapons elsewhere,

In issuing a new rule to close the gun show loophole for firearm sales, the Biden administration isn’t just narrowing one of the easier paths by which criminals obtain guns. It’s attempting to close a sacred portal into American gun culture. The rule, which has been under public review since it was officially proposed last

Is the Alabama House siding with NYC banks in an effort to track your firearms and ammunition purchases?  It would appear that may be the case. In an unprecedented move, HB 389, which was favorably reported out of committee last week, was re-referred back to Financial Services committee for another hearing. Please contact the members of the
