We all saw what happened yesterday. It was a political bloodbath.
The next two years will bring challenges, but we are prepared to do the work. We’re fighting not only for ourselves but for our children and future generations.
Read John Velleco’s message to gun owners below.
I could not be more proud to work for GOA:
✅Federal affairs lobbied Congress to eliminate the NFA tax.
✅Then our legal team sued to have the $0 tax struck down.
✅Now some states like Ohio still required registration, so our state and local lobbyists finished the job.
Go team! 👊 🔥 🦅
The Biden ATF tried to turn millions of law-abiding gun owners into potential felons with its pistol brace rule.
GOA fought back and helped deliver a major victory!
50 years of taking on unconstitutional gun control. 50 years of No Compromise!

"Congratulations to Jim Jordan, House Freedom Caucus founder and former chairman, on being elected House Republican Leader! A fierce fighter, uniter, principled conservative, and relentless advocate for the American people. Jim is exactly the right man for the job to fight back against the radical, crazy agenda of Democrats."
The 1990s brought the Brady Act, the federal Assault Weapons Ban, and major attacks on gun owners.
GOA fought back.
As we celebrate 50 years of No Compromise, we're revisiting the battles that helped shape our movement.
Part 2: 1993–2000.

For four months, GOA has worked with pro-gun Ohio lawmakers to strengthen SB 214, which removes suppressors from Ohio's dangerous ordnance restrictions and eliminates registration requirements.
GOA's amendment goes even further, adding SBRs and SBSs to the bill.

GOA led the fight to eliminate federal NFA taxes on suppressors, short-barreled firearms, and AOWs.
Then, through Silencer Shop Foundation v. ATF, we challenged federal registration requirements.
But federal victories don't automatically erase state restrictions.

For decades, GOA has fought against gun owner registration and pushed for nationwide Constitutional Carry, becoming the first gun rights group to do so.
For 50 years, we have remained true to our mission with a No Compromise commitment to defending the Second Amendment.
🎉 GOA turns 50!
Founded in 1976, we've spent five decades fighting for the Second Amendment with No Compromise.
This week, we're looking back at the battles, victories, and gun owners who built our movement.
First up: 1976–1992. Swipe through history!
GOA supports the @FreedomCaucus plan to take the power of the purse away from anti-gun Democrats.
Otherwise, Democrats can & will weaponize government funding to infringe on our rights. @SpeakerPelosi once passed 12 gun control measures in a single omnibus spending bill.
🚨BREAKING: House Freedom Caucus leadership just dropped a lame-duck roadmap for @SpeakerJohnson and @LeaderJohnThune.
Strip Democrat leverage. Deliver real wins. Do it before the clock runs out.
No leaving town until it’s done — let’s finish the job!
