| Turn Election Success into ACTION! |
Thanks to your efforts, GRNC contributed to a landslide victory for pro-gun conservatives in the November elections; beyond keeping conservative supermajorities in both chambers of the General Assembly, we added one to our Congressional representation (now 10 Republicans, 3 Democrats), and unseated Democrat Senator Kay Hagan.
PARLAY THE ELECTION INTO PRO-GUN LAWS
With sessions of both Congress and the state legislature about to convene, it is now time to turn your highly successful efforts into tangible benefits by passing pro-Second Amendment legislation. Very shortly, those of you with paid GRNC memberships will receive a link for a survey asking for your legislative priorities. First, however, GRNC is starting a petition, to be presented to Speaker Tim Moore (GRNC ****) and Senate President Pro Tem Phil Berger (****) to deliver a clear and unmistakable message:
- We are sick and tired of ideologically motivated local government bureaucrats ignoring state law to ban lawfully carried firearms where they may no longer legally do so; and
- We will no longer tolerate sheriffs who flout the law by arbitrarily obstructing or denying gun permits.
| IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED! |
- SIGN THE PETITION: We want tens of thousands of signatures to this petition, so please:
- Sign the petition now by CLICKING HERE or going to http://grnc.org/legislative-petition-2014;
- Direct friends and family to the website to sign it as well;
- Download the petition to distribute among friends, co-workers, shooting club members and civic organizations, gathering signatures and then mailing the petitions back to us. Download it by CLICKING HERE or going to http://grnc.org/https://grnc.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/preemption_petition.pdf
- SIGN UP FOR “CITIZEN LOBBY DAY:” GRNC plans to deliver a clear message to legislators that we expect them to “remember who brung ‘em to the dance.” To that end, we want YOU to join us in Raleigh on January 29 at 9:00 AM. Sign up by CLICKING HERE or going to: http://grnc.org/citizen-lobby-day

Michael Bloomberg’s many “astroturf” gun control organizations create the appearance of grass roots support where none actually exists. Now it’s time for YOU to show politicians what grass roots mobilization really looks like. Yes, it is during the week. No, it is not convenient to your work schedule. Unfortunately, however, it is the only time politicians will actually witness your efforts.
It’s all up to you. With your support, GRNC was highly successful in electing pro-gun legislators in November. GRNC is all-volunteer, meaning every dime you contribute will be used to defend your rights. If you have already joined, we thank you, but your membership is not enough to help us continue our long string of successes.
