Charlotte, NC –-(Ammoland.com)- Thanks to your efforts, Senators Max Baucus (D-Mont.), Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.), Jon Tester (D-Mont.) and Joe Donnelly (D-Ind.), sent a letter to President Obama opposing the ratification of the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty.
This letter joins the bipartisan efforts of 50 senators and 181 members of the House of Representatives. The U.N. Arms Trade Treaty poses a clear threat to Second Amendment rights because of the inclusion of “small arms and light weapons,” which includes firearms owned by law-abiding American citizens. This treaty also sets the stage for a national gun registry which could be made available to other nations.
Please continue to voice your support for our constitutional freedoms by letting your Senators know that the international gun grabbing United Nations will not be allowed to infringe on our Sovereignty and Second Amendment.
You can find contact information for your U.S. Senators by using the “Write Your Representatives” tool at www.NRAILA.org. You may also contact your Senators by phone at (202) 224-3121.
Again, thank you for taking action and contacting your Senators.

None of you have the slightest idea of what is really written in the ATT. The NRA campaign against the ATT – a treaty that has nothing to do with the Second Amendment – has another goal: the ATT could regulate the exports of arms by NRA corporate sponsors, as demonstrated by the report “Pinocchio Ltd”, available at

We the people that have fought and given so much of ourselves for this Country are upset that the the very freedoms we fought for are even considered to be given away so freely by the people we elected to perserve our rights ! These elected officals today have had it so easy they gladly give our freedom away ! We the people say do your jobs and protect our rights !
More Senators should oppose the UN Arms Trade Treaty.
In the time he has left, he can still do a lot of damage, to the American way of life.
