Today at noon, the Minnesota House gavels back in after radical left Democrats spent the weekend staging a sit-in on the House floor.
To see our video recap of what happened on the House floor during the Thursday vote, CLICK HERE or the image below.
So much has happened and there’s a LOT to discuss but I’m going to save that for one of the next emails.
Right now, the gun control groups are arriving to have their paid activists scream outside the House chamber while Democrats stall the House trying to force gun control through before adjournment.
This is the final stretch!
We won a major fight on Thursday — Now we need to hold the line until session ends Sunday night.
Right now, I’m asking you to send an emergency email to your Reps, again, telling them you want NO VOTE on S.F. 4067 or any other gun control!
CLICK HERE TO SEND YOUR EMAIL!
The common narrative from the Democrats this entire session is “All Minnesotans want this gun control.”
But Minnesota Gun Rights members have SHATTERED that illusion by sending nearly 105,000 emails into St Paul this session opposing the gun control agenda.
THAT is the reason our Second Amendment rights are still in tact in Minnesota and that’s why I need the MGR grassroots army to send another round of emails NOW!
Like I said on Thursday, we’ve tripled our ad buys and expanded our pressure campaign into key House districts but we didn’t raise enough on Thursday to pay for them entirely.
Frankly, this legislative session may go down as the most expensive in our history but if we make it out the other side with our gun rights in tact, it was all worth it!
There’s much more to say but we’re gearing up for a major fight on the House floor today, so SEND YOUR EMAIL and MAKE A DONATION right away, to help us win.
And remember, Sunday night at 11:59pm, this all ends.
Step up now and show Minnesota that we still fight for freedom here.

We have an absolute emergency fight on our hands in St Paul and it’s do or die.
We’re just a few days away from adjournment and as the House adjourned for the evening yesterday, the Democrats threatened Speaker Demuth saying essentially “Put S.F. 4067 on the House floor for a vote in the next 24 hours or we’re going to do a sit-in on the House floor and lock this place down.”
That deadline is coming today at 5pm.
As I type this, the gun control hordes are SCREAMING in front of the House chamber doors, a massive press conference was held demanding gun control, every media outlet is demanding a vote and the pressure is at an absolute FEVER PITCH.
In the 12 years I’ve been heading up operations here at MGR, I have never seen the radical Left Democrats apply this much pressure to a legislature to pass gun control.
With S.F. 4067 having passed the Senate last week, if the Left is successful in getting it on the House floor, we’re faced with a 67/67 split vote.
If even ONE Republican defects and votes with the Democrats, it’s GAME OVER.
Then we’re living under rifle bans, magazine bans, expanded Red Flag laws, gun owner registration and a lot more.
Minnesota Gun Rights is hammering back!
That’s why I’ve directed my ads team to CRANK UP THE PRESSURE by TRIPLING our ad buy between now and the end of session!
I need YOUR help to fund this fight, all the way to the end.
YOU are the firewall standing between Minnesota and full blown gun control!
Right now we’re flooding the social media airwaves with pressure, targeting Lisa Demuth and the same House Reps that the gun control groups are — telling them NO DEAL on gun control.
We either win or we lose and it ALL ENDS in just a couple days!
As I said in one of my previous emails… if you’ve been waiting to give, NOW. IS. THE. TIME.
Help us save our Second Amendment! Help us STOP S.F. 4067!

I know my team emailed you yesterday, but I’m back at the office and have an emergency update from St Paul.
S.F. 4067 has PASSED the Minnesota Senate and the fight moves to the Minnesota House where the vote is TIED at 67-67.
That means if just ONE Republican folds under pressure from the media, lobbyists, or anti-gun leadership, this massive gun control package passes and heads straight to Governor Walz’s desk.
ONE vote.
That’s all it takes to gut the Second Amendment in Minnesota.
And make no mistake — as I just witnessed myself, the pressure campaign has already begun!
The Left knows they only need to flip one weak Republican to force this bill through.
And given the House Republicans just passed multiple “light” gun control bills to help the Democrats “clean up” some mistakes from laws they passed in 2023, I think the Democrats could get the vote they need!
That’s why Minnesota Gun Rights is moving immediately to flood the House with pressure from gun owners across the state.
Frankly, in the 12 years I’ve been leading Minnesota Gun Rights, I’ve never seen us this close to losing so much freedom.
S.F. 4067 is one of the most dangerous gun control bills Minnesota has ever seen.
It includes:
► Bans on many semi-automatic firearms
► Magazine bans
► Expanded Red Flag confiscation schemes
► New carry restrictions and gun-free zones
► Firearm registration requirements
► Restrictions on homemade firearms and a LOT MORE
This bill is not about stopping criminals — it’s about controlling YOU.
The anti-gun Left believes they finally have a chance to force this through, and they are going to spend the next 11 days doing everything they can to break the House and crush gun owners into submission.
We cannot let that happen.
That’s why I need you to do two things immediately.
First, send your pre-written email to your State Representative and tell them to VOTE NO on S.F. 4067.
Then, once you’ve done that, I need you to help Minnesota Gun Rights hold the line during the final stretch of session.
We have just 11 days left.
That means 11 days of emergency text alerts.
11 days of digital ads.
11 days of pressure campaigns.
11 days of mobilizing gun owners into targeted House districts.
11 days of hammering weak Republicans before the anti-gun Left flips one of them.
And none of that happens without resources.
If we lose one vote, we lose everything.
For Minnesota,
Ben Dorr
Executive Director
