Your Membership Dues Are Not Enough.  

If you want to DEFEND your Right to own and carry a firearm...

If your FREEDOM to hunt and shoot is important to you...

Then you need to SUPPORT the VSSA War Chest.

VSSA is on Offense.  During the 2023 legislative session, we are again working to repeal the restrictions passed in 2020.  We are also working to defeat attempts to ban building firearms for personal use (so-called "ghost guns").

The 2021 election defeated the anti-rights majority in the House of Delegates and installed a pro-rights majority led by Speaker of the House Todd Gilbert.  As with 2022, there are a number of bills introduced to overturn the restrictions placed on gun owners in 2020.  Also like last year, working to pass these bills will be difficult because the State Senate still has an anti-rights majority.  Even worse, the three Democrats that helped defeat HB961, the so-called "assault weapons" ban bill, are now all on board with passing a gun ban.  Working at the legislature does not come without cost.  Please consider a donation the the VSSA War Chest.

While we work to activate gun owners to contact their Delegate and State Senator, we need to pay our lobbying bill for the 2023 Session of the Virginia General Assembly.  Our lobbying team is at the Assembly every day of the session speaking to legislators.       

Only with your help can we continue to push back on the gun ban lobby while working to overturn the damage they did in 2020 and 2021.

While we are working at the General Assembly, we are also supporting efforts in the courts to overturn gun bans.  VSSA joined an amicus brief last year in the New York Rifle and Pistol Association vs Bruen case and that case was likely the most important gun rights decision issued by the Court.  We also just an amicus brief urging the Supreme Court to hear a challenge to a key part of the Maryland "assault weapons" ban which the U.S Supreme Court remanded back to th 4th Circuit and instructed them to apply the standard set forth in Bruen.  These efforts take financial resources and are only possible with support from our members and Virginia gun owners.  In 2023, we have joined a brief in Antonyuk v. Nigrelli, which seeks to overturn the law that the Governor of New York signed which undermines the victory in Bruen.

Please take a moment now and make your most generous contribution of $500, $250, $100, $50, $25, or even $10, to replenish our legislative fund and prepare for the 2023 General Assembly elections.
