Sample Language:

RESOLUTION DECLARING YOUR COUNTY TO BE A SECOND AMENDMENT SANCTUARY COUNTY

WHEREAS, the right of the people to keep and bear arms is guaranteed as an individual right under the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” and

WHEREAS, the right of the people to keep and bear arms for defense of life, liberty, and property is regarded as an inalienable right by the people of YOUR County, Iowa; and

WHEREAS, the people of YOUR County, Iowa derive economic benefit from all safe forms of firearms recreation, hunting, and shooting conducted within YOUR County using all types of firearms allowable under the United States Constitution and the laws of the State of Iowa; and

WHEREAS, the YOUR County Board of Supervisors was elected to represent the citizens of YOUR County, and have sworn by their Oath of Office to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution of the State of Iowa; and

WHEREAS, Iowa State Senators and State Representatives have also sworn by their Oath of Office to uphold the United States Constitution and the Constitution of the State of Iowa; and

WHEREAS, legislation is currently being considered and expected to be proposed by both the Iowa State Legislature and Federal Legislature that potentially seeks to infringe on the constitutionally protected right of citizens to keep and bear arms; and

WHEREAS, it is desirable to declare that YOUR County is a Second Amendment Sanctuary County, as YOUR County opposes the enactment of any legislation that would infringe upon the constitutional right of the people of YOUR County to keep and bear arms.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the YOUR County Board of Supervisors hereby declares YOUR County to be a Second Amendment Sanctuary County, and hereby states its opposition to the enactment of any legislation that would infringe upon the constitutional right of the people of YOUR County to keep and bear arms.

2A Sanctuaries Catching Fire in Iowa!

This morning the Jasper County Board of Supervisors, consisting of Brandon Talsma, Doug Cupples, and Denny Carpenter, voted UNANIMOUSLY to affirm Jasper County’s civil rights across the board.  Jasper County has become a 2A Sanctuary County.

Last week Mitchell County became a “Second Amendment Supportive County” in a 4-1 vote.  Four Mitchell County Supervisors voted in support of your civil rights.  They were Todd Frein, Steve Smolik, Michael Mayer, and Mark Hendrickson.  IFC thanks them for their action.  One Mitchell County Supervisor, Jim Wherry, didn’t support your civil rights.  The meeting minutes can be found HERE.  You can watch the meeting discussion starting @ 32:46 below.

When will the State of Iowa become a complete 2A Sanctuary?  We’d love to see our Governor made such a declaration.  Let Governor Reynolds and Lt Governor Gregg know you want our state to affirm and support this civil right by using IFC’s ACTION CENTER to send a quick message.

The Iowa Firearms Coalition teamed up with NRA-ILA and drafted an example resolution declaring your county to be Second Amendment Sanctuary County.  Simply remove “YOUR” and insert your county with the language below.  Make sure every one of your friends, neighbors, and fellow constituents get a copy of this, in order for them to impress upon your county supervisors the importance placed on God given and law protected liberties.
