The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) is gearing up to promptly contest any federal “assault weapons” ban, spearheaded by Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY), if it successfully passes into law.

“Bruen is straightforward. Justice Clarence Thomas’s majority opinion threw out the lower courts’ use of interest-balancing tests, which were unconstitutional from inception.

“There are better things to do with taxpayer dollars and time,” Keane asserts. “Introducing do-nothing bills is the antithesis of ‘doing something.’ These Members of Congress should be focused on holding criminals accountable instead of chasing headlines.”

President Joe Biden called for stricter gun control at the Safer Communities Summit at the University of Hartford, Connecticut, this past Friday.

Chairmen Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Thomas Massie (R-KY) are turning up the heat on banks, broadening their investigation into voluntary customer data sharing with the FBI.

“We’ve seen – from the very beginning – [President] Biden wants to take away gun rights of law-abiding citizens. He’s tried it multiple different ways, but coming through the backdoor – trying to retroactively make felons out of people, including military veterans who lost limbs fighting for our freedoms – is shameful, and we’re standing up against that,” he said.
