America’s 1st Freedom is dedicated to preserving our fundamental right to self-defense. With news on anti-gun schemes that affect our gun rights, plus the truth about legislative battles on Capitol Hill and the 50 states.
Will a meaningful Second Amendment survive in Virginia? That this is even an open question shows how dramatically one election can reshape a state when it comes to the right to keep and bear arms.
I can’t believe it’s been seven months since I was elected NRA president, and I’m already composing my eighth President’s Column. The officers never fully anticipated or appreciated the immense challenges we faced when elected.
The strength of the NRA is, and has always been, our membership. Without our millions of members, we would not be able to effectively rally behind elections for pro-freedom politicians; just as importantly, if not for our large membership, our representatives in office would not feel the same urgency to listen to us in this constitutional republic.
Change is difficult for us. We are often shocked by it. We recoil from it when it brings loss and see it as a time for remorse. And it can be, but often what we are witnessing is a step in a transformation.
WE ARE THE NRA ... Freedom’s Safest Place. We protect, defend and promote the fundamental right of every law-abiding American to safely and responsibly exercise our God-given Constitutional right to keep and bear arms for defense of self, family, home, state and country, as well as for hunting and recreation, now and for future generations.
I get up every morning with one question on my mind: How do we continue to give America the strong NRA it needs?
“Give me liberty, or give me death,” are the immortal words of Patrick Henry spoken on March 23, 1775, to the Second Virginia Convention in Richmond, Va. His impassioned words were a call to arms against British tyranny.

I dedicate this column to the ongoing monumental change and transformation of the NRA. The NRA has experienced an impressive history of success over the last 154 years.
Asking questions should not be off-limits as we seek actual solutions to a grave problem.
The NRA is a force for good, and it stands against the scapegoating of law-abiding citizens who choose to exercise their constitutional rights.
Seeking firearms training from Everytown is like asking PETA to teach you how to grill a steak.
Hard work is paying off and the future looks bright for this organization.
Anti-gun politicians so often preach that they stand for American freedom while their actions show the exact opposite. This particular example goes beyond parody.
It is the mission of this organization and its members to be champions of freedom.
The feedback of NRA members is vital.
The National Firearms Act is an impermissible restriction on Second Amendment-protected arms and it must be dismantled.
There is much work to be done to restore the ATF to its original, intended purpose.
America would not long maintain its freedom without a strong NRA.
The NRA is refocusing on its mission of promoting and protecting your Second Amendment rights, hunting and conservation, competitive and sport shooting and firearm safety and training for the benefit of all Americans.
