Washington isn’t backing down.
It’s regrouping.
A new federal gun control push is being sold as the “Virginia model,” a supposedly reasonable, state-tested approach to public safety.
But it’s not new.
It’s the same gun ban agenda that’s been failing in Congress for years — now repackaged to sound more acceptable.
Same Agenda, New Strategy
Federal “assault weapons” bans didn’t disappear when they stalled in Washington. They evolved.
Proposals like the GOSAFE Act already showed where this was headed by targeting most semi-automatic firearms owned by law-abiding Americans.
Now lawmakers are trying a different approach.
Instead of pushing a national ban outright, they’re pointing to Virginia and calling it a “model.”
The goal isn’t to change the policy, it’s to make it easier to pass.
And if it succeeds, it won’t matter what states like Texas have already done.
A federal gun ban replaces it.
Texas Gun Rights Is Fighting Back
Texas Gun Rights isn’t waiting for Washington to act.
The organization is already working to pass the Second Amendment Preservation Act next session, giving Texas real tools to push back when federal overreach comes knocking.
If Washington tries to impose gun control laws that go beyond Texas law, there should be consequences.
That means civil penalties for any law enforcement officer — federal or local — who attempts to enforce those laws inside Texas.
Not symbolic resistance.
Not statements.
Enforcement.
Because if Texas doesn’t draw that line, Washington will.
And Washington isn’t slowing down.
They’re changing tactics.
Rebranding the same bans. Re-pitching the same failed ideas. Waiting for the moment they can push it through.
This is that moment.
Sign the petition now to stop the federal assault weapons ban — and chip in to help Texas Gun Rights take the no-compromise fight nationwide.
