Dear Iowa NRA Member:                                                                   

The National Rifle Association strongly opposes President Barack Obama’s nomination of Merrick Garland for the U.S. Supreme Court.  Please read Chris Cox's recent op-ed detailing NRA's opposition to Merrick Garland. 

Anti-gun groups want to see the Heller and McDonald decisions overturned and the Second Amendment erased from the Constitution.  If confirmed to the Supreme Court, Judge Garland would help make that happen.  Obama has already nominated two Supreme Court justices who oppose our Second Amendment freedoms. Garland’s record shows that he does not support our right to keep and bear arms.  His confirmation would change the balance of power on the Court for generations.

Senator Chuck Grassley is leading the fight against this nomination. Please contact Senator Grassley and THANK him for standing strong against Obama’s attempt to put a third anti-gun justice on the Supreme Court! His offices can be reached at the numbers below, and you can also tweet him @ChuckGrassley.
