Pro-Gun Organizations Obtain Preliminary Injunction Against Biden Regime Gun Grab

On June 11, 2024, Gun Owners of America (GOA) and the Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) teamed up to obtain a preliminary injunction against Biden’s Universal background check rule, which could mandate any individual who sells just one firearm annually to acquire a Federal Firearms License and carry out background checks.  

Under the judge’s order, the ATF can no longer enforce the new rule against members of GOA, the Tennessee Firearms Association, the Virginia Citizens Defense League, and residents of the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and Utah. 

The original rule went into effect on May 20, but GOA previously assisted in obtaining a partial Temporary Restraining Order blocking its enforcement against its members and several other plaintiffs.  

Erich Pratt, GOA’s Senior Vice President, made the following statement:

This is a massive victory for our members, and it comes at a crucial time. Before the rule even took effect, the ATF was involved in an early morning raid in Arkansas on a citizen’s home who was accused of not abiding by these rules, and ultimately, he ended up being killed. This Administration’s ceaseless aggression towards gun owners has already turned deadly, and the enforcement of this rule would have inevitably led to more unnecessary bloodshed. GOA and our valued partners will continue to fight back against this lawless and tyrannical administration.

Universal background checks are just the first step towards gun confiscation. The Biden regime knows this, which is why it has labored diligently to implement this measure at all costs. It can’t pass UBCs through conventional legislative means such as House votes. Hence, the Biden regime used executive power to implement gun grabs. 

This demonstrates the need to oppose all gun control from the federal level, specifically through the use of nullification. Now is not the time to continue tolerating further encroachments against our gun rights.
