In 1992, Chuck Schumer passed an amendment directing the ATF to permanently deny Second Amendment rights to people who committed _non-violent_ crimes. The “Schumer Amendment” added to the dangerous precedent of empowering the government to act as the ultimate arbiter of our God-given rights. For more than thirty years, GOA has received countless letters from would-be gun owners asking us to fight for the restoration of their constitutionally-protected right to keep and bear arms. For example, under the “Schumer Amendment,” anyone who was involuntarily committed to a mental institution for even a short period of time faces an unconstitutional LIFETIME GUN BAN. _But now, we finally have good news to share…_ **The Department of Justice is proposing a rule to allow for federal RESTORATION of gun rights for the first time in 32 years!** With the DOJ requesting comments from the American people regarding this proposed rule, we need GOA members like you to flood their inbox with comments showing widespread public support for gun rights restoration. This rule is a massive step in the right direction towards stopping unelected ATF bureaucrats from having the power to strip you of a right that is protected by the U.S. Constitution. _But make no mistake: gun control groups will ask their members to do the same – and flood the DOJ’s inbox with anti-gun vitriol. That’s why we need to be certain that for every 1 anti-gun letter the DOJ receives, they receive 3 letters from GOA members._ > **[Federal Register :: Request Access](https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/03/20/2025-04872/withdrawing-the-attorney-generals-delegation-of-authority#open-comment)** copy an past this statement: **I strongly support the Department of Justice’s proposed rule to allow for federal restoration of gun rights pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 925(c).** \*\*If the Trump Administration is serious about wanting to rein in unelected bureaucrats who have abused their power and waged war on individuals’ rights and freedom, then this rule must go into effect. \*\* \*\*Unelected ATF bureaucrats should not have the power to permanently deny certain Americans from ever exercising a constitutionally-protected right to keep and bear arms. \*\* \*\*Since the “Schumer Amendment” went into effect in 1992, thousands of would-be gun owners have contacted Gun Owners of America, asking for their constitutionally-protected rights to be restored. \*\* \*\*It is unjust to strip those Americans of a constitutional right – for life – especially a right that provides personal safety and security, and a right that is explicitly prohibited from being “infringed” upon. \*\* \*\*I urge the Department of Justice to move forward and fully implement this proposed rule. \*\* **In Liberty,** ---

Chuck being a Dem Senator from the Dem state of NY is a raging hypocrite: He has a very rare “unrestricted” NYPL NY Pistol License. Mere mortals cannot get those, most are restricted to the premises of your home / business. Cross the threshold outbound into the public, and you have no right to bear arms, and are as defenseless as having no NYPL of any type. ---

The first thing that should happen is get rid of that GD Up-Chuck Shumer. He should get the Benito Mousolini up side down cake
