by The Brady Campaign is going all out to make sure senior citizens who have trouble managing their finances remain as prohibited persons. It is not merely that they will be prevented from purchasing a firearm but that they will be considered a prohibited person under the Gun Control Act of 1968. While those affected have not been adjudicated as mentally defective as provided by GCA ’68, the Social Security Administration still would report them as such to the FBI for inclusion in the NICS Database.
The Brady Campaign is saying that there are 11 undecided senators. They don’t name them. If your home state senator is one of these undecideds, the Brady telephone tool connects you to their office. If not, then you are connected at random to one of the other senators. I just tried it and I wasn’t connected to either of the senators from North Carolina who, by the way, I had already called urging passage of S.J.Res. 14.
I love using the resources of the anti-rights gun prohibitionists to advance a pro-rights agenda!
Breaking news: We’re within just a few votes of victory and we need you!Dear ,
The time to act is now!
Yesterday,
we asked you to email your Senator and demand that they vote no on a
bill to roll back protections that keep guns out of the hands of people
who are a danger to themselves or others.
TODAY the Senate is expected to vote on whether to erase a critical part of the Brady background check law that prevents people most at risk from accessing guns.
Please take one more action now to let key, undecided senators know we need them to vote against rolling back the protections of the Brady background checks.
Call one of the key senators today and tell them to vote NO on Senate Joint Resolution 14! Thank you.
