Women For Gun Rights (formerly DC Project) Annual Lobby Days and Rally, 10/16/23 - 10/18/23

SAI President Tyler Yzaguirre joined more than 60 of the WGR ladies for their annual lobby days and rally at the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C.

Women for Gun Rights is a nationwide organization of women committed to safeguarding the Second Amendment:

A non-partisan initiative of daughters, mothers, and sisters that believe education is the key to firearm safety and violence prevention, not legislation. We counter the disinformation gun control groups circulate by informing our friends, families, communities, and legislators with the truth that gun rights are human rights.
