GRNC ALERT UPDATE
PERMITLESS CARRY ACTION TO OVERRIDE STEIN’S VETOES
|
|
|
|
TELL ALL HOUSE REPUBLICANS TO OVERRIDE
STEIN’S VETOES OF CONSTITUTIONAL CARRY
& PROTECTION OF PRIVATE SCHOOLS
|
UPDATE & ACTIONS
2A Friends and Defenders,
Senate Bill 50 (“Freedom to Carry NC”) and House Bill 193 – bills that would restore your right to carry concealed without a government permission slip—WERE VETOED by Anti-2A Governor Josh Stein. His excuse? That they would “make North Carolinians less safe.” Something we all know is not true.
Make no mistake: these vetoes are not about safety. It’s about control.
Several so-called “Republicans” dodged the vote entirely. Rather than standing with their constituents and defending liberty, they chose political self-preservation over the Constitution.
You should have seen the Alert sent yesterday to address the betrayals by Ted Davis (R-Iredell) and
Bill Brisson (R-Bladen, Sampson)—now permanently branded the “Treachery Twins.” They voted against SB50, siding with the Left and betraying the very voters who put them in office.
Let us be crystal clear: if Davis and Brisson once again turn their backs on us during the override vote, they will be held responsible for killing permitless carry in North Carolina. GRNC’s Political Victory Fund is watching. And when election season comes, we will remember.
We don’t beg. We demand our rights.
Prepare to fight. Prepare to call. Prepare to vote out every last Anti-2A politician who stands in the way of your freedoms.

Suggested Subject: Stand Firm — Override Stein’s Anti-2A Vetoes
Dear NC Representatives:
I’m writing to demand that you stand firm and vote to override Governor Josh Stein’s disgraceful vetoes of SB50 (“Freedom to Carry NC”) and HB193. These bills represent a long-overdue return to Constitutional principles—SB50 removes the permit requirement for concealed carry, and HB193 empowers private schools to protect their students using trained, vetted volunteers. approved by the schools.
The governor’s vetoes are rooted in nothing more than tired anti-gun fearmongering and outright disregard for the rights of law-abiding citizens. I urge you to ignore the emotion-driven theatrics from House Democrats and the Anti-2A organizations and do what is right—not what is politically convenient.
29 states—three-fifths of the country—have constitutional carry. North Carolina must no longer lag behind. We were promised Constitutional Carry in 2023. We expect it in 2025. That promise must be kept.
Let me be clear: gun owners were instrumental in securing Republican majorities in the General Assembly. We did not vote for compromise. We voted for courage. We expect our representatives to fight for freedom, not fold under pressure.
I’ll be watching how you vote. So will thousands of gun rights voters across this state—through legislative alerts from Grass Roots North Carolina.
Vote to override. Deliver the freedom we were promised.
Respectfully,
|
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
ALERT WRITERS
|
We Need Alert Writers
In order to continue to offer these critical email alerts in a timely and effective fashion, GRNC needs more alert writers. If you have general writing ability, basic computer skills, a desire to defend the Bill of Rights, and a few hours a week, GRNC would love to bring you on board as an important member of our writing team. Note that a few hours a week, sometimes a little less, sometimes a little more, is a small tradeoff for the immense satisfaction you’ll feel after you have direct involvement in killing anti-gun bills, expanding gun rights, and stopping short the political careers of gun-grabbing legislators.
Contact Us
Please, we need you. If you feel at all called to pitch in and defend the Second Amendment, there is nothing better you could do than volunteer for North Carolina’s most effective, no-compromise gun rights organization, Grass Roots North Carolina. If interested, we’d love to hear from you, please email: alertwriter@grnc.org with the subject line: “Alert Writer Inquiry.” Thanks!
