VICTORY: FEDERAL JUDGE BLOCKS EXTREME GUN CONTROL LAW

We just had a victory in our lawsuit against New York’s tyrannical gun control law.

As reported by Fox News:

"A federal judge temporarily blocked parts of New York state's new gun law in order to allow the Gun Owners of America (GOA) to pursue a lawsuit challenging the legislation." -- Fox News

Last month, we faced a temporary setback when the judge dismissed our case on very technical grounds.

But we refused to give up. Our members like you helped us raise funds for the thousands of dollars in legal fees we have incurred to win this battle.

Thanks to your generosity, YOU have kept us in the fight – and we just had our first victory in this very long battle. That’s why we now need your help to stay in the fight until the bitter end.

New York state has already indicated that they plan to appeal the judge’s decision!

So please make a tax-deductible contribution to Gun Owners Foundation’s Legal Defense Fund to ensure we can stay in the fight all the way to the Supreme Court.

New York’s law was passed as an attempt to find loopholes to circumvent the Supreme Court’s Bruen decision from earlier this year that reaffirmed your God-given right to keep and bear arms.

The law virtually puts the ENTIRE state off limits to concealed carry permit holders.

Here are the provisions of the law that are blocked under the temporary restraining order secured by Gun Owners Foundation:

  • Requiring businesses to openly state they ALLOW concealed carry
  • Disclosing one’s social media accounts for review
  • Prohibitions on carrying in most so-called “sensitive places,” including doctor’s offices, Times Square, restaurants and places of entertainment, and on public transportation
  • In-person interviews with law enforcement

But the lawyers representing New York now have THREE DAYS to appeal this ruling to a higher court.

That’s why it’s crucial that we start marshaling the resources to prepare for an appeal right now.

If New York gets away with enacting their tyrannical assault on the Second Amendment, anti-gun mayors and governors all across the nation will believe they have free rein to follow suit.

New York has effectively turned its entire state into one giant Gun Free Zone – and now it’s become a model for other states to follow.

That’s why overturning New York’s draconian law is important to ALL 50 states.

But it won’t be an easy battle.

Well-funded anti-gun attorneys are going to give us hell to try and defeat us every step of the way – with the hope that we’ll simply run out of funds to stay in the battle.

That’s why we’re turning to our generous members like you once again to ensure we can stay in this fight up until the very end.

So please, make a tax-deductible contribution to Gun Owners Foundation’s Legal Defense Fund to ensure we can stay in the fight all the way to the Supreme Court.
