Happy Thanksgiving from Minnesota Gun Rights!

We certainly have a lot to be thankful for here in Minnesota as we wrap up 2022 and prepare for the struggle ahead of us in 2023.

It’s been a very long and hard-fought year, but we had some great successes along the way!

Some of the highlights of the past year include:

>>> Defeating the Bloomberg/Latz/Pinto “Universal Gun Registration” bill, which would have created a statewide gun registry, paving the way towards gun confiscation like gun owners face in New England.

>>> Defeating the anti-gunners attempts to pass “Red Flags” legislation that would annihilate due process rights for law-abiding gun owners.

>>> Defeating a PILE of anti-gun radicals at the polls!

I could not be more thankful for the team we’ve assembled here at Minnesota Gun Rights, who have the privilege and pleasure of FIGHTING on your behalf and on behalf of our kids and grandkids!

But mostly, I’m just thankful for you, the grassroots base that is Minnesota Gun Rights.

This beautiful organization isn’t some out-of-state gun lobby that flies into St Paul once in a while and then leaves again.

My wife and I and our four sons have carved a life out right here in Northfield and are proud to raise our family here, just like all of you, and it is my sincerest pleasure to FIGHT alongside you!

This organization was founded by Minnesotans, it’s run by Minnesotans, and it’s funded by Minnesotans just like you.

Every time we’ve asked you to call or email the legislature to support or oppose the legislation, you rose to the call.

When we asked you to stand with us and rally for our rights at the capitol and the Governor’s mansion, THOUSANDS of Minnesotans turned out from all over the state and made their voices thunder!

And when we set about to run a massive election program this year, you guys funded that program 100%, giving us the ammo we needed to fight back in 2022!

This consistent support has allowed Minnesota Gun Rights to become the LARGEST, NASTIEST, and MOST EFFECTIVE gun rights organization in the state!

I have to tell you, the members of MGR are one hell of a team.

More than that… you are my friends, and I’m honored to stand with you. 

Now, as the kickoff for 2023 approaches, it’ll be time for a political FIGHT against our aggressive anti-gun Governor Tim Walz and the new Democrat majorities in St Paul, who will be working tirelessly to cram their agenda down gun owners’ throats.

It’s time to STAND UP – for our kids, for our grandkids, and so that the rights and freedoms that we hold most dear will never be stripped from the great state of Minnesota.

So please enjoy time with your family and friends today, but please also re-commit yourself to the fight for the Second Amendment by renewing your membership for 2023!

(Remember all membership renewals of $75 or higher come with a Minnesota Gun Rights T-Shirt, and we’ll ship it to you absolutely free!)

For Minnesota,

Ben Dorr
