🚨 BIG WIN FOR THE SECOND AMENDMENT 🚨
The ink is drying on a major victory in Florida. In Dunn v. Glass, Mountain States Legal Foundation successfully challenged Florida's firearm waiting period laws, paving the way for both provisions to be struck down.
A delayed constitutional right is a denied constitutional right.
This victory reaches far beyond Florida, strengthening our ongoing challenges to waiting period laws in Colorado and New Mexico and advancing the fight for Second Amendment rights nationwide.
None of this happens without supporters like you. Thank you for standing with us as we defend constitutional freedoms and create lasting change across America.

Mountain States Legal Foundation has filed an amicus brief in County Commissioners of Boulder County v. Suncor Energy USA, Inc., this brief urges the Supreme Court to reject Boulder’s climate lawsuit against energy companies ⚖️❌
We argue that only federal law—not state or local lawsuits—should set national climate policy, and that Boulder’s claims lack legal merit and threaten to undermine both federal authority and national energy security.

Mountain States Legal Foundation is honored to recognize Israel Del Toro as the recipient of the 2026 MSLF Medal of Courage Award 🏅
Israel is a decorated Air Force veteran who survived a devastating blast in Afghanistan that burned over 80% of his body and cost him the full use of his hands. Despite being declared 100% disabled, he showed remarkable courage by choosing to remain in the Air Force, becoming the first airman ever to reenlist under those circumstances.
Israel has never let his injuries define him. That includes his determination to exercise his Second Amendment right to self-defense.
Colorado’s sweeping 🔫 control law bans these very items, effectively leaving Israel with no practical means to defend himself. Instead, he is told he must navigate layers of bureaucratic red tape only to be left with tools he cannot physically operate.
This is more than unfair—it’s an attack on the very freedoms Israel risked his life to defend. No veteran, no citizen, no American should be denied the ability to protect themselves in the way that works for them. The government has no authority to regulate that right away.
