Today in a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder, 65 Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives, led by Congressman Mike Ross (D-AR), expressed their opposition to the reinstatement of the failed 1994 ban on semi-automatic firearms and ammunition magazines. These congressmen cited numerous studies that proved the 1994 ban was ineffective, and they strongly urged Attorney General Holder to stop his effort and instead focus on the enforcement of existing gun laws.
NRA would like to thank Congressman Ross for his leadership on this effort. We will continue to work with Members of Congress from both parties on this important issue.

This very good news. I’ve said all along that guns are a civil rights issue and we need BOTH parties to be in favor of all civil rights, not just the ones they like.
A big thank you to Congressman Ross and the other 64 Democrats who put our civil rights first.
Now, all Demoncraps and Republicraps should sign legislation REPEALING ALL existing Gun Laws, except those that apply to commission of violent crimes with weapons, as they’re ALL UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Then they’ll be in compliance with their Oath of Office to support the Constitution as the SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND!
