March 10, 2020 was the 2nd Amendment Rally at the Tennessee Legislature which was a joint endeavor by the Gun Owners of America, National Association for Gun Rights and Tennessee Firearms Association. It was a great success! We were particularly pleased that House Speaker Cameron Sexton recognized the Rally and was its first speaker.

The Rally had as its focus encouraging grassroots activists and the representatives from these three organizations to meet with individual legislators to discuss the desired and necessary improvements to the permitless carry legislation that the Governor introduced as an “administration bill”, the opposition to Red Flag legislation, the elimination of gun free zones. Quite simply, the mission was to impress on individual legislators that the voters are serious in their desires that their rights, as identified and protected by the 2nd Amendment, be relieved of any and all infringements that currently exist in local, state and federal laws.

We are also glad to report that many of the Legislators agreed that these changes were important and should be taken into consideration as the bills are discussed.

Please see the full report in TFA's News Post for March 13, 2020.
