Just as the Second Amendment is not a second-class right, the AR-15 is not a second-class arm. As promised, @CivilRights is moving fast to vindicate Virginians’ rights to acquire the most popular rifle in the country for self-defense. justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-d…

🚨 BREAKING: Judge Jeffrey Campbell just handed a major win for the Second Amendment through an injunction in Santolla V. Katz, prohibiting the enforcement of @GovernorVA’s unconstitutional “assault weapons” ban. The NRA is proud to deliver this win, but we are not stopping here!

Arguments for an injunction against the Spanberger/Helmer gun ban in the case brought by NRA and VSSA in Washington County today went very well. State Senator Stanley was the lead attorney. In related news, the judge in the VCDL/GOA case issued an injunction in that case.

🚨 The NRA-backed lawsuit filed by @VSSA and others challenging Virginia's "assault weapon" and "high-capacity magazine" bans is this Thursday, June 25! These laws criminalize a slew of commonly-owned firearms, including America's Rifle — the AR-15. NRA will not back down.

Virginians. Buy a gun today. Buy 100 magazines tomorrow. Or buy 10 mags a day for 10 days. ;) And commit to getting off your butts and voting next time around. Otherwise, you'll get more of what you have now. A cautionary tale for the entire country.

ATF Director Robert Cekada says the Biden-era rule on pistol braces nearly tripped him up, and chastised those who say the only reason to own short-barreled firearms is to commit murder... as @bradybuzz head @KrisB_Brown recently told NPR. youtu.be/MEJmuUXPoeg?si=SyLw…

SCOTUS is clear that all firearm restrictions must be rooted in historical precedent—where that precedent is absent, @TheJusticeDept and @CivilRights will step in to defend Americans’ 2A rights!

Lucas has been the most openly corrupt politician in Richmond for years. She's trying to turn this into a Trump thing - for an investigation that literally began under Biden.

Senate just followed the House action on HB217 and passed by SB749 for the day. That's the Senate AWB bill.

The State Senate just adopted the Governor's substitute to SB827. The patron referenced it brings the definition online with HB217 with out knowing the House did not approve HB217 changes.

As usual, Justice Thomas is on target. Wilsonian progressivism represents a rejection of the Founders’ vision and constitutional framework.

Since Wilson’s presidency, progressivism has coexisted uneasily with the principles of the Declaration. Because it is opposed to those principles, it is not possible for the two to coexist forever, Clarence Thomas says on.wsj.com/4vz3vAw

Opinion | Justice Thomas: Progressives vs. the Declaration

Woodrow Wilson’s ideas are opposed to the basic American creed. They can’t coexist forever.
