Just a reminder Iowa’s highest polling candidate for Attorney General, Brenna Bird, and her son, both support Iowa’s Freedom Amendment. Turn your ballot over and VOTE YES for Iowa’s Right to Keep and Bear Arms Amendment! We’re thankful for her support. THANK YOU!

Do you know that Iowa is one of only six states that do not recognize our precious Second Amendment rights in their constitutions? It may seem hard to believe, but Iowa, which adopted “shall issue” Permits to Carry Weapons in 2010 and became a “constitutional carry” state in 2021, shares that dubious distinction with California, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and Minnesota.
The Iowa Firearms Coalition, Iowa’s only effective gun-rights organization, has been hard at work for years to get this fixed! Amending Iowa’s Constitution is no easy task. The course is long and there are many hurdles and pitfalls along the way. But the good news is that what the IFC calls the “Freedom Amendment” has now passed two consecutive Iowa General Assemblies and the issue will be on the ballot for Iowa voters to decide on November 8, 2022.
The proposed Freedom Amendment reads:
“The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. The sovereign state of Iowa affirms and recognizes this right to be a fundamental individual right. Any and all restrictions of this right shall be subject to strict scrutiny.”
On Saturday 10-22 Brenna Bird came by the IFC table at the gun show in the 4H building on the fairgrounds.
My wife and I were representing the IFC at the table all day when she came by. We had a good conversation with her about The Freedom Amendment.
Zach Nunn came by to say Hello to The IFC membership and we also had a good conversation about The Freedom Amendment.
Both candidates are very aware of the significance of The Freedom Amendment to Iowa and to our Republic!
Senator Grassley was headed our way, but he ran out of time.
Thank you to all the people who came by our IFC table to support this effort to make things Right!
