Pro-gun rights

Rogue lawyers within the Justice Department are rebelling against the Trump Administration and are now FIGHTING Gun Owners of America in our legal battles.

The ATF has ceased enforcing its Biden-era “zero-tolerance” policy which let them SHUT DOWN gun stores if they made even the simplest of mistakes, such as a record-keeping error or a procedural issue.

But at the end of the day, a repeal is not enough. If unelected bureaucrats can scribble the unconstitutional rule into effect at whim, a future anti-gun administration can bring it back at ANY MOMENT.

That’s why we need a court ruling to kill it for good.

And sure enough – we were right not to blindly trust the government. DOJ lawyers are STILL fighting GOA’s efforts to kill Zero Tolerance in court, once and for all.

Just look at this email GOA received from a DOJ lawyer – working on YOUR taxpayer dime – who refuses to “abandon [Biden’s] previous arguments.”

While we continue our legal battle, we’re also now taking this fight straight to President Trump’s desk.

The President has been firing rogue bureaucrats who are rebelling against the agenda you voted for, but now he needs to clean house in the DOJ.

But to get it done, we’ll need GOA members like YOU to send letters to rein in the rogue DOJ lawyers.

Please add your name to our pre-written letter urging the White House to rein in these DOJ lawyers who are REBELLING against the Administration’s own 2A agenda.

GOA is representing gun dealers in court who have been wrongly threatened by the ATF through its unlawful “zero-tolerance” policy.

Hundreds upon hundreds of gun stores have been shut down while this Biden rule was in effect.

And GOA proudly has a perfect 1.000 batting average in defending them!

But we will not stop fighting until the zero-tolerance policy has been completely ripped to shreds – and not because a bureaucrat tells us that it’s been “repealed” on a whim, but because a court order MANDATES it.

So, as GOA continues our legal battle to ensure this rule has been eviscerated, we’re asking you to help bring this matter to the President’s desk immediately.

Please, add your name to our pre-written letter urging the White House to rein in these DOJ lawyers who are REBELLING against the Administration’s own 2A agenda.

GOA-Themed Firearms Make Their Debut at GOALS 2025
— Exclusive Benefits for GOA Members!

Our second annual GOALS 2025 in Knoxville, TN is officially in the books!

Thousands of attendees filled the halls of the Knox Convention Center to explore more than 230 exhibitors showcasing firearms, optics, and accessories.

GOA members also connected with hundreds of media and content creators, and heard from powerful voices on the main stage—including Rep. Thomas Massie, Dana Loesch, and Brandon Herrera, the “AK Guy.” Herrera announced his second run for Congress after coming within 400 votes of unseating Rep. Tony Gonzales in Texas’s 23rd Congressional District in 2024.

The show floor was not just about conversations and connections. It was also the backdrop for major product launches:

• Daniel Defense unveiled its special-edition GOA-themed MK18 rifle, turning heads with both its design and its message.
• Hi-Point Firearms introduced its long-anticipated 995TS carbine to the public for the first time.

These launches underscored GOALS as the place where the industry comes together to showcase innovation and reach gun owners directly. More in-depth product reviews are included below in this email.

Not to be outdone, our organization made an announcement of our own. GOALS will be moving to a bigger convention hall in Des Moines, Iowa in 2026.

This move will allow us to bring even more exhibitors, provide for a bigger stage, host more speeches, panels, and events, and most importantly allow our membership to conceal carry their firearms on the premises, something that we were not willing to negotiate when choosing our next venue. In the coming months we will be releasing more information on ticket sales as well as event and speaker lineups.

From all of us at GOA, thank you for making GOALS 2025 such a memorable experience!

In Liberty,

Kailey Nieman
Director of Development

SAN DIEGO (August 21, 2025) – Today, Federal District Court Judge Cathy Ann Bencivengo issued a permanent injunction siding with FPC and blocking enforcement of California laws preventing FPC’s members who reside outside of California from acquiring a carry license (commonly called a “Carry Concealed Weapons” license, or “CCW”). The injunction follows the Court’s July decision that the law was unconstitutional under the Second Amendment.

FORT WORTH, Texas (August 21, 2025) – Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) today warned of a new Trump Administration strategy to block enforcement of constitutional rights.

Second Amendment Champion AG Andrew Bailey Named FBI Co-Deputy Director, GOA Responds 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

August 19, 2025

Washington, D.C. – Gun Owners of America (GOA) is excited to see the appointment of Missouri’s Attorney General to Co-Deputy Director position of the FBI. AG Bailey, who was a speaker at GOA’s inaugural GOALS conference in Knoxville last August, is a staunch supporter of the Second Amendment and the right to keep and bear arms.

GOA, Gun Owners Foundation (GOF), and the State of Missouri recently filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri to challenge the Jackson County, Missouri ordinance which criminalizes handgun purchases by adults under 21 and bans those aged 18-20 from possessing undefined” semiautomatic assault rifles.”

With the FBI now under the leadership of Director Kash Patel, AG Bailey’s addition will be instrumental in ensuring the agency’s resources are not weaponized against peaceful American citizens.

Tim Macy, Chairman of Gun Owners of America, issued the following statement:

“Attorney General Andrew Bailey has consistently stood with GOA and GOF in challenging government infringements on the Second Amendment. We are excited to see a proven ally who shares our No Compromise mission take on an active role in President Trump’s second term.”

Erich Pratt, Senior Vice President of Gun Owners of America, added:

“The Biden-era FBI made it clear it was no friend to Americans—especially gun owners—as anti-gunners weaponized the agency to undermine our constitutional rights. We’re confident AG Bailey will help put a stop to this abuse and bring the leadership the FBI desperately needs.”

GOA spokesmen are available for interviews. Gun Owners of America is a nonprofit grassroots lobbying organization representing over two million members and activists. For more information, visit GOA’s Press Center.
