BELLEVUE, WA – Although Joe Biden labors to prohibit American citizens from owning what he calls “weapons of war,” his disastrous mishandling of the Afghanistan crisis has allowed Taliban insurrectionists to seize thousands of weapons and billions of dollars of equipment, paid for by U.S. taxpayers, and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms calls this the “ultimate hypocrisy of the Biden-Harris administration.” “Tens of thousands of American small arms and ammunition just fell into the hands of the Taliban regime,

BELLEVUE, WA – Reports from Afghanistan have revealed the Taliban has been confiscating privately-held firearms on the grounds people don’t need them for safety, which sounds frighteningly similar to arguments Joe Biden has made in support of a ban on semi-auto rifles and 9mm pistols, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms observed. “One of the first things Joe Biden did after taking office was push his gun ban agenda,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “One of the first things the

BELLEVUE, WA – The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is taking Joe Biden to task with a new 60-second TV message on several cable networks, and they’ve got the best help of all, the president’s own words of admission that he wants to ban 9mm handguns. The new message includes a film clip of Biden saying he wants to ban 9mm pistols. “Neither Joe Biden nor his White House handlers can sugar coat the president’s acknowledgement during a CNN Townhall program

BELLEVUE, WA — The real Joe Biden has finally stood up, revealing during a CNN Townhall that he is “continuing to push to eliminate the sale” of guns that can fire multiple rounds, “whether it’s a 9mm pistol or whether it’s a rifle” and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms says enough is enough. “It’s taken Joe Biden six short months to foul up the economy, reverse this country’s energy independence causing fuel prices to soar, declare war on free

BELLEVUE, WA – Focusing on the history of Americans who often face the necessity of being their own “first responders” during emergencies, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms has submitted an amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court in support of the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association’s challenge of restrictive Empire State carry laws. The brief was submitted by attorneys Bradley A. Benbrook, counsel of record, and Stephen M. Duvernay, Benbrook Law Group PC in Sacramento. “The fragility of

BELLEVUE, WA – New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s declaration of a “disaster emergency on gun violence” is a desperate attempt to shift blame to guns and the firearms industry to mask his own incompetence in dealing with rising crime in the Empire State, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said today. Cuomo announced his “emergency” after 51 people were shot across the state over the July 4 holiday weekend, including 26 in just New York City. Asserting that, “We went

BELLEVUE, WA – Shake Shack, the Los Angeles Clippers and Insight Partners have all been added to the “Don’t Feed Them” list of anti-gun-rights businesses by the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. “When we launched this project,” recalled CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb, “we promised our members and supporters there would be occasional updates, and we keep our promises.” CCRKBA’s “Don’t Feed the Gun Prohibitionists” project has developed a list of businesses and CEOs who have been supporting groups and efforts that

BELLEVUE, WA – Joe Biden’s gun control crusade is losing significant traction among Americans, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos survey, and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms believes part of the credit goes to its aggressive television efforts to educate the public about his radical anti-gun-rights agenda. According to Reuters, “the number of Americans who approved of Biden’s stance on gun violence dropped 8 points overall and 11 points among Democrats from April to June.” CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb says

BELLEVUE, WA – The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms today is demanding an immediate investigation into allegations that David Chipman—nominated to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives—made a derogatory comment about African American ATF agents “cheating” to pass an agency selection exam while he was serving with the agency in Detroit in 2007. CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb said the allegations are “alarming and incredibly disturbing.” “With the racist history of gun control and past racist enforcement practices going

BELLEVUE, WA – The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms has released the following reaction to Thursday’s party-line vote in the Senate Judiciary Committee regarding the nomination of David Chipman to head the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. “Today’s party-line vote in the Senate Judiciary Committee on David Chipman’s nomination to head the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives underscores the toxicity of his choice by Joe Biden to head the agency,” said Alan Gottlieb, chairman
