HR 2640, a/k/a the Veterans Disarmament Act, is apparently on its way to the President’s desk. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) got his congressional opposition to “compromise” on it the other day, according to a GOA alert I received this am.

I believe the NRA has lost its moral compass in supporting this legislation. The bill will statutorily bar over 140,000 law-abiding veterans from possessing firearms.

This Congress, led by the Democrats, have apparently decided the 2nd Amendment doesn’t count. If our President signs it into law, it will, in my opinion, be another nail in our Constitution and Bill of Rights.

I fear for what they are doing to this Nation and the principles upon which it was founded.

And one other thing.. this passed the Senate and the House without a recorded vote.. passed by unanimous consent. That is a travesty, IMHO.
