Iowa Gun Owners 2016 Elections

2016, Iowa

Since 2010, Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal and Iowa Senate Democrats held back Constitutional Carry and Stand-Your-Ground legislation as state after state enacted this crucial legislation.

With a growing number of their colleagues getting booted out of office for their votes against the Second Amendment thanks to the work of Iowa Gun Owners, they passed ancillary gun bills, but not the bills that Iowans wanted.

Throughout the 2016 session, the NRA and their instate affiliate, the Iowa Firearms Coalition, literally begged Mike Gronstal and Senate Judiciary Chairman Steve Sodders to pass pro-gun legislation in a shameless display of desperation, but got nothing in return.

Iowa Gun Owners doesn’t beg.

Iowa Gun Owners 2010 Elections

2010, Iowa

With the NRA and their instate lackeys at the Iowa Firearms Coalition (then known as Iowa Carry) giving A+ ratings and campaign money to notorious gun grabbers like Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal and Chet Culver over the years, it was hard for gun owners to make much progress prior to 2010.

Afterall, these politicians could attack the Second Amendment and still receive money from the NRA…so why should they ever advance pro-gun legislation?

That’s why, following the 2010 legislative session, Aaron and Chris Dorr set about a plan to expose as many anti-gun politicians as possible on behalf of the members and supporters of Iowa Gun Owners.
