Gun Owners of America (GOA) has achieved a significant victory, effectively ending the "Veteran Gun Ban" which unfairly added veterans to the NICS prohibited person's list due to having a benefits fiduciary. This policy, originating from the Clinton administration, wrongly equated having a financial advisor with mental defectiveness, denying veterans their Second Amendment rights without due process. GOA's persistent advocacy, including working with Congress and leveraging legislative action like the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024, has led to the VA ceasing this reporting and initiating the removal of improperly added veterans.
Gun Owners of America has successfully lobbied to end a 30-year veteran gun ban. This ban unlawfully disarmed over 270,000 veterans by labeling those in the VA fiduciary program as 'prohibited persons' without due process. Effective immediately, the VA will cease reporting these individuals to the NICS system and is working to expunge past records.
This video discusses a significant victory for veterans' Second Amendment rights, spearheaded by Gun Owners of America (GOA). A new law enacted in 2024 prevents the VA from automatically referring individuals in the VA fiduciary program to the FBI's NICS system as prohibited persons. GOA has successfully advocated for the removal of over 270,000 veterans from this list, correcting a long-standing injustice.
