America's 1st Freedom

Our job is to make sure that the NRA is prepared to succeed in electing pro-gun representatives at all levels who will defend the Second Amendment. It’s hard work but I know that we are all up to the task.

From The Editor: Everyone Wants Justice

America needs a fair and impartial justice system that treats everyone equally. Instead, some are blaming law-abiding citizens for rises in crime.

Standing Guard | A Fight For Freedom’s Survival

The most-powerful weapon we have in the fight for freedom is our collective voice. Together, we can fend off the attacks of those who attempt to utilize the government to trample on and destroy our rights.

Standing Guard | Only NRA Members Can Stop Biden’s Agenda

All President Biden needs to make his gun-ban dream a reality is a handful of votes in a closely divided Congress. Our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms depends on you and me now more than ever.

After a very close election led to a divided Congress, we have to ask what is now in store for our Second Amendment freedom and we must prepare for future struggles to retain and, in come places, to win back our rights.
