Take These Four Steps to Kill Red Flag Gun Confiscation in Tennessee
Dear friend,
Reports from Nashville indicate that your representative, Cameron Sexton, is considering support for a type of red flag gun confiscation.
While the news media may describe this as a measure to address “mental health,” experienced gun rights activists recognize this as a “Constructive Republican Alternative Proposal” – also known as C.R.A.P.
This type of compromise legislation is exactly like its acronym. It will not further your Second Amendment rights, but rather garner more infringements.
I’ll be honest, the stakes at the special session are high.
Gov. Bill “Lousy Lee” is putting immense pressure on Rep. Sexton and the entire legislature to pass some C.R.A.P., and that’s why I’m asking you to take more action than normal.
So, please take these four steps.

First, email Sexton with GOA’s pre-written and editable message.
Second, follow up your message with a call to Sexton at (615) 741-2343.
Third, print off GOA’s Fact Sheet and mail it in
