GOA, @GunFoundation, & @VCDL_ORG will be in court tomorrow to challenge Virginia's latest gun control laws.

STOP LETTING VIOLENT CRIMINALS OUT OF JAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The FBI lied about the stats on civilians stopping shooters in an attempt to push propaganda designed to remove the 2A.
Citizens have stopped 52.5% of shooters in non-gun free zones and 36% in gun free zones. The FBI claimed it was only 3.7%
Good morning from Lancaster County, where Gun Owners of America and the VCDL are hoping for an injunction blocking Virginia’s assault weapons ban set to take effect on July 1. NRA is in nearly 400 miles in Washington County today seeking the same result. @CourthouseNews
I’ve always believed the right to bear arms shouldn’t come with conditions. Today’s ruling sends a clear message that the Constitution isn’t selective, which is why I filed the Firearm Freedom Act. Americans have a right to bear arms.

🚨 BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court just struck down Hawaii's “private property default rule” law in a 6-3 decision, delivering a massive win for the Second Amendment.
This unconstitutional law prevented gun owners from carrying their firearms in public places without express permission.
“Law-abiding gun owners will no longer be forced to beg for special permission simply to exercise their constitutional right to bear arms in public places.” - NRA-ILA Executive Director @jcommerford.

JUST IN: Governor Abigail Spanberger officially signs a bill handing over Virginia’s 13 electoral votes to whoever wins the most votes across the whole country…
even if Virginians vote the other way.
Insane.
They rushed it through with mostly Democrat votes. The plan has 222 votes. It needs 270 to actually start working. Once it does, your vote in Virginia doesn’t matter anymore.
The Founders made the Electoral College so a few big cities don’t boss the whole country. This is a sneaky Democrat power grab to cheat that.
“Every vote counts the same”? Lies.
Virginians are pissed off, and they should be. They got played.
🚨HISTORICAL PRECEDENT: Virginia Militia Clause Lawsuit
A legal challenge to the unconstitutional "assault firearms" ban filed by former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli argues a UNIQUE approach:
... "Article 1, Section 13 of the Virginia Constitution begins, 'That a well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defense of a free state.' These words were drafted by George Mason in 1776 prior to the Declaration of Independence and have remained a part of the Commonwealth’s Constitution ever since."
"As the complaint notes:
"They are not a preamble. They are not a recital. They are operative constitutional text, continuously in force for two hundred and fifty years."
"The breadth of that guarantee is remarkable. Article I, Section 13 speaks of 'the body of the people'—without qualification as to sex, age, or other condition. The Virginia Constitution thus embeds the militia concept at its most expansive: not a narrow demographic slice, but the people themselves, armed and trained for the defense of the free state. George Mason, who authored these words, confirmed their sweep on June 4, 1788, at the Virginia Ratifying Convention: 'I ask, Who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people, except a few public officers.'"

This case, Crump v. Katz, is being heard today, Friday June 12, 2026.
John Crump, Gun Owners of America, Gun Owners Foundation, Virginia Citizens Defense League, and Virginia Citizens Defense Foundation are suing Virginia over SB749 and SB727, arguing the new “assault weapon” and magazine bans violate Article I, Section 13 of the Virginia Constitution by banning the sale, transfer, manufacture, purchase, and public carry of commonly owned firearms and standard-capacity magazines.

The Nation's Gun Show scheduled for June 12, 13 & 14, 2026 has been cancelled. Please follow us or check our website for more information about this show. https://t.co/R1RTDFcIaA
If I was a business looking for a new site, a public announcement that local law enforcement wouldn’t enforce a law banning assault weapons would make me look elsewhere. Ignoring the law is bad for business. https://t.co/SccO2JOZLZ
🚨BREAKING🚨
GOF, @GunOwners, along with @right2bear & @VA_Gun_Rights, filed our legal challenge to @GovernorVA Spanberger's prohibition on commonly-owned firearms & mags, plus restrictions on carrying them.
SCOTUS already said you can't ban the most popular firearms.
Virginia senators want to inflict their tyrannical gun strategy on entire country
FBI data shows knives kill three times more people than all rifles combined, yet the plan targets AR-15s
It’s often said that bad ideas start in California and make their way east. But these days, Virginia looks eager to take that crown.
The two U.S. senators from the Old Dominion aren’t just embracing gun control from Richmond — they’re trying to export it nationwide. Democrat Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner have rolled out the so-called “Virginia Plan,” a package that would take 13 of the most extreme gun restrictions in Virginia law and impose them on the entire country.
In pushing this agenda, Kaine points to the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre as justification. But the facts tell a different story. A comprehensive analysis of mass shootings for more than 75 years demonstrates that 93% of mass public shootings occur in so-called Gun-Free Zones. That suggests the problem is not too many guns, but too many places where only the attacker is armed and victims are left defenseless.
Nevertheless, Kaine and Warner want to expand those very zones — prohibiting firearms within 1,000 feet of most hospitals and mental health facilities. But does anyone seriously believe a sign will stop a criminal intent on murder?These attackers ignore such restrictions all the time. And given that most of them choose these disarmament zones, it’s hard to escape the conclusion that these policies don’t deter attacks — they invite them.
Take a hospital in Darby, Penn. A deranged individual entered, intent on killing as many people as possible in 2014. By the logic of gun control advocates, that attack should never have happened. The shooter was prohibited from owning firearms — he couldn’t pass a background check. Yet he still obtained several guns illegally.
And the hospital was exactly what gun control proponents claim to want: a place where no one but law enforcement is allowed to carry. But, in practice, those restrictions did nothing to stop him. And as the saying goes, when seconds count, police are minutes away.
The gunman walked right past a “no guns allowed” sign and opened fire. What he didn’t expect was resistance. His intended target, Dr. Lee Silverman, was a lawful permit holder who carried despite the hospital’s policy. When the shooting began, Silverman took cover and returned fire, striking the attacker multiple times and stopping the rampage. Tragically, one life was lost — but authorities credited him with preventing a much larger massacre.
That’s not theory — that’s reality. And yet Virginia’s leaders are moving in the opposite direction. Among the 13 provisions in the Virginia Plan, the most egregious may be its ban on commonly owned firearms — a restriction that Virginia itself is now preparing to enforce.
The term “assault weapon” is one of the most misleading labels in this debate. But any item used to kill could be labeled an “assault weapon.” FBI data from the past five years shows knives are used in about 1,500 homicides annually — over three times more than all rifles combined. AR-15s are only a small subset of long guns. So why is policy fixated on one category that represents a tiny fraction of violent crime?
These bans don’t just miss the mark — they come at a real cost. The firearms being targeted are among the most popular in the country for lawful purposes, including self-defense. Stripping law-abiding citizens of access to effective defensive tools doesn’t disarm criminals — it only tilts the balance against those who follow the law. If the goal is public safety, we should focus on violent offenders, not restrict responsible citizens.
That’s something President Donald Trump has done well. Our country is enjoying unprecedented safety — and it didn’t come from new gun restrictions. It came from a shift in priorities. In the first month of his second administration, Trump implemented measures aimed at deporting violent gang members, ending catch-and-release policies for illegal aliens and getting repeat offenders off the streets. That’s what real public safety looks like
If they don't respect your right to protect yourself, what rights do they respect? None!
🚨VA-ALERT🚨 #2A4VA
Your most pressing concern is probably how your ability to carry that semi-automatic hand tool, with decent capacity magazines, might be changing on July 1. That’s what this document is focused on!
