Everything from criminalizing private transfers to banning black rifles to confiscatory red flag laws is on the agenda. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-official-safer-states-initiative-blueprint\">Official Safer States Initiative Blueprint:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Establishing a State Office of Gun Violence Prevention;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Investing in evidence-informed solutions to prevent and respond to gun violence, including community violence interventions, Crime Gun Intelligence Centers, and implementation of Extreme Risk Protection Orders;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strengthening support for survivors and victims of gun violence;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reinforcing responsible gun ownership, including by requiring safe storage of firearms and reporting of lost and stolen firearms;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Strengthening gun background checks, including by enacting universal background checks legislation and removing barriers to completing enhanced background checks; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Holding the gun industry accountable, including by banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines and enacting firearm-specific liability laws to ensure that victims of gun violence have their day in court.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>GunsAmerica reached out to Mark Oliva, the managing director of public affairs for the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), for his insights on this initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The White House, knowing that their gun control wishlist doesn\u2019t stand a chance in Congress, is looking to outsource their out-of-touch agenda to the states,&#8221; Oliva said via email.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This includes franchising, at taxpayer expense, offices similar to that of the Office of Gun Violence Prevention that are staffed with former gun control lobbyists,&#8221; he continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-see-also-california-gov-newsom-reveals-shameful-political-calculations-in-great-debate\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/california-gov-newsom-reveals-shameful-political-calculations-in-great-debate\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"biden-harris-admin-giving-taxpayer-dollars-to-states-that-adopt-gun-control\" title=\"Biden-Harris Admin Giving Taxpayer Dollars to States that Adopt Gun Control\">California Gov. Newsom Reveals Shameful Political Calculations in Great Debate<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>But Oliva&#8217;s primary concern is the lack of focus on criminal accountability. He suggested, quite rightly, that instead of targeting law-abiding citizens and their constitutional rights, the government should enforce policies that incarcerate criminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oliva also noted the administration&#8217;s alignment with the Soros family, which is <a href=\"https:\/\/thegunwriter.substack.com\/p\/when-it-comes-to-destroying-gun-rights\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"biden-harris-admin-giving-taxpayer-dollars-to-states-that-adopt-gun-control\" title=\"Biden-Harris Admin Giving Taxpayer Dollars to States that Adopt Gun Control\">funding and perpetuating<\/a> a radical agenda on gun control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using taxpayer dollars to fund gun control is wrong.  But that doesn&#8217;t mean states won&#8217;t line up to take the money.  The lure of federal funding may prove too tempting for some, even if it means enacting measures that infringe upon the rights of law-abiding gun owners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ve got to admit, it&#8217;s a pretty slick move by the President and Vice President. But here&#8217;s the deal: it\u2019s on us to make sure this doesn\u2019t fly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Time to pick up the phone or fire off some emails to your state lawmakers. Let them know exactly what you think about the Safer States Initiative. We can&#8217;t just sit back and watch this happen.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1Tiz4suiAKuZHW2khU1vfc8ENZd1JCvfO\/preview\" width=\"854\" height=\"480\" allow=\"autoplay\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong><em>*** <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"biden-harris-admin-giving-taxpayer-dollars-to-states-that-adopt-gun-control\" title=\"Biden-Harris Admin Giving Taxpayer Dollars to States that Adopt Gun Control\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Buy and Sell on GunsAmerica!<\/a> ***<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Biden-Harris administration has cooked up a scheme to use taxpayer dollars (your money!) to incentivize states to pass laws that punish responsible gun owners.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":158,"featured_media":195821,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_specdata_upc":"","_specdata_placement":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[244,25,240],"tags":[132,607,122],"featured":[],"hunt365":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-195814","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-2nd-amendment-r2kba","8":"category-current-events","9":"category-this-week","10":"tag-buzz","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-r2kba"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
