Take Action: Help Stop ATF’s Most Recent Assault on Law-Abiding Gun Owners

Read this week's Grassroots Alert view the web version of this email NRA-ILA GRASSROOTS VOLUME 27, NUMBER 50   NEWS   Take Action: Help Stop ATF's Most Recent Assault on Law-Abiding Gun Owners On December 17th, ATF posted Objective Factors for Classifying Weapons with "Stabilizing Braces" for public inspection on the Federal Register. The "guidance" was officially published in the Federal Register on December 18th. ATF will be accepting public comments on this "guidance" until January 4, 2021.   NEWS   After Colluding with Biden, BATFE Raids Polymer80 On December 10, agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives raided Dayton, Nev.-based Polymer80. The company manufactures unfinished, often referred to as 80 percent, receivers and frames. There are also reports of BATFE confronting Polymer80 customers and confiscating certain unfinished frame kits. The move marks the first direct assault on unfinished frames and receivers since the news broke in November of collusion between BATFE and Biden's transition team to target these items by executive fiat.   NEWS   NRA Statement on the ATF's Recent Actions By completely changing course on earlier decisions, BATFE has signaled that it is ready and eager to collaborate with Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and other gun control extremists to infringe on our Second Amendment rights. The NRA will fight these aggressive anti-gun actions on pistol stabilizing braces and Polymer80. Gun owners know elections have consequences. This is why we must all fight to protect the pro-gun Senate majority in the run-off races in Georgia.   NEWS   NRA Takes Carry Case to SCOTUS The National Rifle Association's Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA) has partnered with the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association (NYSRPA) today to ask the Supreme Court to hear a challenge to New York's restrictive process for issuing concealed carry licenses.   NEWS   The Government's Naughty and Nice List A Supreme Court ruling this month, Tanzin v. Tamvir, No. 19-71, offers a few valuable insights into the "No Fly, No Buy" gun control proposal championed by the Obama administration (here and here), House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and Michael Bloomberg's Everytown group, among others.   NEWS   Public Health: Still Double Counting We – the NRA specifically and the gun-owning community more generally – are quite familiar with efforts to label anything and everything a "public health issue" or even a "public health crisis." We may not be certain of the threshold between an "issue" and a "crisis" when it comes to public health, but we are certain that the words have different meanings.
