LEGAL ALERT: In a 6-5 decision, the en banc Ninth Circuit has upheld Hawaii’s short gun permit validity and gun inspection requirements, saying they “do not materially impede Plaintiffs from acquiring firearms.” Judge VanDyke dissents, saying “in this circuit, the Second Amendment safeguards less liberty now than it did in the wake of Heller.” cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datasto…

The call came down from the President himself to not appeal GOA’s historic NFA victory. Now ATF needs to accept the ruling and issue formal guidance.
🚨NFA UPDATE🚨 Read the full report from @CBSNews about President Trump’s personal decision NOT to appeal GOA’s victory in Silencer Shop v. ATF ⤵️ “President Trump ordered @TheJusticeDept not to appeal a court ruling that loosened restrictions on firearms known as ‘gangster weapons,’ sources familiar with the matter told @CBS News, a move that will let some Americans possess or sell short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns and silencers with less government oversight.

“@POTUS himself decided against appealing the ruling, several of the sources with knowledge of the matter said. Mr. Trump has also told some Republican members of Congress in a series of calls in recent weeks that he would ensure the Justice Department did not contest the decision, sources familiar with the discussions said.

“Letting the lower court ruling stand runs counter to the recommendations of some career and politically appointed lawyers at the Justice Department across multiple offices who disagree with the court's opinion, several of the sources said, adding that they have warned it is already beginning to adversely impact federal firearms prosecutions across the country.

“A Justice Department official said the department intends to tell Congress it will not appeal the ruling. 
“A spokesperson with the Justice Department told CBS News that @ATFHQ ‘will issue guidance soon to implement the court's order.’ 
“The judge's decision came in two consolidated cases brought against the government by 15 red states and a number of Second Amendment gun rights groups and individuals, including the Gun Owners of America and the @GunFoundation.  
“Although the ruling applies only to the parties to the lawsuit, any current or future members of the gun groups that sued over the rules are covered. An annual membership to the Gun Owners of America, for example, costs $25. “Although the injunction only applies to the parties in the lawsuit, the judge said that it would also be applied to the plaintiff gun groups' members and customers, ‘both current and future.’
 “His decision to cover ‘future’ customers and members of the gun rights groups who are a party to the lawsuit has already started to cause problems for federal prosecutors.
In one criminal prosecution in the Middle District of Alabama, for example, the Justice Department earlier this month dismissed an indictment against a man named Cameron Silmon on a charge he knowingly received a silencer without a serial number, after his defense lawyer claimed his client had joined some of the gun rights groups after the Texas judge issued the injunction. "’The 'Big Beautiful Bill' provision that quietly zeroed out the tax may ultimately do what no court, no Congress, and no administration has done in ninety years eliminate: the National Firearms Act, one of the primary American gun laws,’ said Jeffrey Cohen, former associate chief counsel at the ATF.”

Two pro-gun bills are moving in House Judiciary: ✅ Pass H.R. 2442 to stop anti-gun excise taxes. 🛠️ Fix H.R. 9298 to protect the entire firearms community. Contact your Rep and tell them to support H.R. 2442 and adopt GOA’s amendments to H.R. 9298. gunowners.org/091526/

The federal government is running a "secret FBI Program called NICS Monitoring" that is used to "track firearm purchases of Americans." Let that sink in for a moment.
🚨BREAKING🚨 @Kash_Patel confirms FBI spies on lawful gun sales: Cruz: "GOA discovered a secret FBI program called NICS Monitoring, used to track firearm purchases of Americans who were legally eligible to buy a gun but were suspected of a crime. Is that right?" Patel: "Yes."

If you want a nonresident Oregon carry permit, you must: • Be from a surrounding state • Talk to a sheriff • Have a “compelling business reason” That’s why GOA and @GunFoundation sued the state in Federal Court. Rights don't stop at state lines.

The Fifth Circuit is taking a case en banc that upheld a conviction under the felon gun ban for someone who did not serve any time in prison for the underlying offense. Judge Oldham concurred in the panel opinion while saying the circuit's 922(g)(1) precedent "was wrong on the day it was decided. And it gets more wrong with each passing day." courtlistener.com/docket/732…
