The “Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act” (S. 397) passed last week but the fight is far from over.

From the NRA

“S. 397 won’t become law until the House and Senate formalize their passage of the bill and send it to President Bush for signature. When he does, it will be the law of the land but just the beginning of another phase of the battle.

The gun-ban groups and their cronies in the courtrooms have vowed to fight this law, in the same courtrooms that have allowed their baseless lawsuits to proceed unchecked. They will search for the right judge and hand-picked jury, and they will attempt to have this law declared unconstitutional. The Brady Campaign has already announced its intention to challenge the law commenting “Congress can pass the bill, the president can sign it, but this shameful law will not stand.” If they succeed, all of our hard-fought progress will be immediately undone.

We must defend this law in every jurisdiction of the land. We must defend our gains from rollback. And we must continue our overarching mission, the defense of the Second Amendment, against new threats that have emerged.”
