Gun control heading to Whitmer’s desk
Yesterday, the Michigan Senate voted along party lines to send mandatory storage legislation (SB 79 and 80) and the expansion of Michigan’s draconian pistol purchase permit scheme to ALL firearms (HB 4138, 4142 and 4143) to Governor Whitmer’s desk where she is expected to sign it into law. I’m not going to ask you to […]
Five Republicans betray gun owners
The stupid was strong in Lansing today. Five Republicans joined with radical anti-gun Democrats to vote for “lock up your safety” legislation that’ll make it harder for Michiganders to defend themselves in their own homes and will also have a devastating effect on youth hunting. Republican Leader Matt Hall (House District 42) was one of […]
Dems ram gun control through Senate
Senate Democrats continued their highly partisan, anti-gun assault on Michigan gun owners Thursday. Nearly all 11 Senate Bills (SB 76-86) were passed on party-line votes, sending them to the Michigan State House for consideration.

Michigan Democrats Seeking to Expand “Gun Free” Zones
Lansing, MI – Tomorrow, the House Elections Committee is holding a hearing on a pair of gun control bills which would prohibit law-abiding Michiganders from possessing or carrying a firearm within 100 feet of a polling place on election day. “Intentionally criminalizing lawful concealed carry is an affront to the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding […]
Vote for gun control, lose their jobs
Michigan Democrats are charging ahead with their anti-gun agenda and we’re ready to fight back on all fronts. I’m already rolling out hard-hitting ads, mail, e-mail and text messages — urging pro-gun Michiganders to contact their lawmakers to oppose these radical measures. But if they charge ahead and pass “Red Flag” gun confiscation, universal gun […]

Lansing, MI – Today, Second Amendment advocacy group Great Lakes Gun Rights promised to work with local political activists and begin recalling anti-gun politicians who vote for gun control legislation being pushing through the Michigan legislature. “Michigan Democrats are charging ahead with anti-gun proposals that would make California blush,” said Brenden Boudreau, Executive Director for […]
In the coming days…
The amount of Michigan Democrats I saw calling for gun control BEFORE all of the facts have come out from last night’s shooting at MSU is shameful. It appears all too many of them have been waiting for a tragedy to pounce on to push for gun control, and it shows. Several Democrat lawmakers were […]
