Nevada Question 1: Would You Like To Register All Of Your Guns?

posted on April 13, 2016
** When you buy products through the links on our site, we may earn a commission that supports NRA's mission to protect, preserve and defend the Second Amendment. **

Officially, the initiative is simply titled “Question 1.” Unofficially, it’s the Bloomberg Gun-Control Initiative—the latest effort in a billionaire’s attempt to buy anti-gun laws across America. 

This November, Nevadans will be asked to vote on one of the most restrictive gun-control measures ever seen in the Silver State. The initiative would subject virtually every transfer of a firearm to federal record-keeping and a background check—including gifts and loans. 

What the initiative will not do is stop criminals from obtaining guns. What it will do is create a universal gun registry, turn otherwise law-abiding gun owners into criminals, and waste resources trying to enforce an unenforceable mandate.

Use Your Power!

Bloomberg’s minions would have you believe this initiative is for a “Safer Nevada,” but it has nothing to do with crime or safety. It’s imperative that Nevadans stand up for freedom this election and vote a resounding “no” to Question 1. Learn more here.

U.S. v. Hemani Arguments

On March 2, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in U.S. v. Hemani. The case involves a defendant who is fighting a federal indictment for possessing a firearm while being a marijuana user.

President’s Column | Getting You Up to Speed

A lot of things have occurred over the past month or so that not all members are completely aware of. I’ll use my column this month to update you on some important issues—transparency.

Standing Guard | The NRA Gathers to Celebrate Our Freedom

The momentum we’re seeing across the country is both encouraging and energizing. January opened with tremendous activity at the NRA booth during SHOT Show, where members, industry partners and supporters stopped by to connect, share ideas and reaffirm their commitment to freedom and the Second Amendment.

Port Authority Doubles Down on Constitution-Free Zone with High-Profile Arrest

As anyone who has passed a basic civics class knows, the U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land. All legislation and official government actions are subject to its limits.
