The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms has announced the first-of-its-kind “Firearms Advocacy Conference” this Spring in Massachusetts, and it is expected to attract Second Amendment advocates and activists from throughout the New England region.
The one-day conference is scheduled Saturday, May 30 at the Castle of Knights in Chicopee, Mass.
Joining CCRKBA in this ambitious effort are the Connecticut Citizens Defense League, Massachusetts Gun Owners’ Action League, Gun Owners of Maine, New Hampshire Firearms Coalition, Rhode Island 2nd Amendment Coalition, and Vermont Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs.
According to the announcement, this inaugural Firearms Advocacy Conference will bring together “some of the top minds and staunchest advocates from the New England states to discuss legislation, litigation, lobbying, and more.” The agenda will include some of the big names in the New England gun rights movement, including lawmakers, attorneys and content creators. Participants will be provided coffee, pastries, and lunch as well as a program packed with quality presentations and speakers.
“We wanted to create an environment where state and regional organizations could come together and discuss the issues that are unique to their areas,” conference chair and CCRKBA Director Holly Sullivan said. “Launching our inaugural regional conference in New England will bring together states with some of the best and worst gun laws to share strategies as well as highlight potential battles that may come to the more liberty-minded states.”
“Bringing a conference like this into the middle of the battlefield is common sense,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “Massachusetts was at the heart of the American Revolution, and Bay Staters — along with many of the New England states — have to fight for their independence from tyranny yet again. We’re proud to bring this event to the epicenter of an anti-gun haven and hope our programming will inspire and educate this generation of Second Amendment supporters.”
CCRKBA also co-sponsors the annual Gun Rights Policy Conference with the Second Amendment Foundation. This year’s event will be held Sept. 25-27 in Dallas, Texas.
