ELECTION 2024: The Second Amendment Was\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>on the Ballot\u2014And the Second Amendment Won\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<\/p>\n November 6, 2024<\/p>\n Washington, D.C. \u2013 Gun Owners of America (GOA) spokesmen issued the following statements in response to outlets calling the presidential race for Donald Trump early this morning:<\/p>\n \u201cKamala Harris would have continued weaponizing the power of government against the Second Amendment rights of the People,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>said Erich Pratt, GOA\u2019s Senior Vice President.\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be charting a far different and brighter course with President Trump, who has promised to repeal the Biden-Harris infringements within his first week in office. Rather than going on defense, we\u2019re already preparing to help the Trump Administration repeal gun control and restore Second Amendment rights.” \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n In addition to the White House, America elected a pro-gun Senate majority, which will open the gates even further for GOA\u2019s No Compromise lobbying efforts. Additionally, this Senate will support the confirmation of numerous federal judges who will support and defend the Second Amendment.<\/p>\n Major GOA victories included Senator Ted Cruz\u2019s successful reelection in Texas, and the defeat of anti-gun lobbyist Ryan Busse in his bid for Governor of Montana.<\/p>\n \u201cWith such a pro-gun mandate from the voters tonight, we\u2019re ready to hold Republicans to their election promises to protect and restore gun rights,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>said Aidan Johnston, GOA\u2019s Director of Federal Affairs.\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cIt is time that Congress finally enact national concealed carry reciprocity, destroy the ATF\u2019s illegal gun registry, de-regulate suppressors, and quit funding unconstitutional \u2018red flag\u2019 gun confiscation laws.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n GOA spokesmen are available for interviews. Gun Owners of America is a nonprofit grassroots lobbying organization dedicated to protecting the right to keep and bear arms without compromise.
