Bloomberg’s Anti-Gun Brigade Pours $45 Million into 2024 Election Assault on Second Amendment

Everytown for Gun Safety, the anti-gun group bankrolled by former New York City mayor and billionaire Mike Bloomberg, is gearing up to spend a whopping $45 million in the 2024 election cycle. Their mission? To push for more gun control and elect Democrats who will prioritize dismantling the Second Amendment rights of Americans.

Targeting Key States and Voter Groups

Everytown’s agenda is clear: flip key battleground states by focusing on younger voters, people of color, and suburban women. They've set their sights on Arizona, California, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, New York, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, where they plan to open field offices and recruit college students to join their anti-gun crusade.

Their goal is to paint lawful gun ownership as a threat, rather than recognizing the fundamental right to self-defense that the Second Amendment guarantees. With 30 new organizers set to recruit volunteers at 32 college and university campuses, Everytown is working hard to indoctrinate young Americans with their anti-gun ideology.

Pushing a False Narrative

Everytown President John Feinblatt isn’t shy about the group’s intentions, claiming, "With MAGA Republicans pushing an extreme ‘guns everywhere’ agenda, this election is a life-or-death moment." This rhetoric is designed to scare voters and misrepresent the true intentions of gun rights advocates, who fight for the right of individuals to protect themselves and their families against real threats.

The group has also endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for President, doubling down on their commitment to elect officials who will undermine the Second Amendment at every turn. This aligns with Bloomberg’s longstanding effort to pour millions into anti-gun campaigns, reflecting his desire to reshape American politics according to his anti-gun beliefs.

Massive Spending on Misguided Policies

About 80% of Everytown’s $45 million war chest will go to television and digital advertising, spreading misleading messages about gun violence and pushing for restrictive policies that will leave law-abiding citizens defenseless. The group’s plan includes supporting local candidates through their “Demand a Seat” program, which seeks to fill government offices with anti-gun activists.

Bloomberg’s influence in Democratic politics is undeniable, with his recent donations including $19 million to Future Forward, a super PAC backing Harris, and nearly $1 million to the Democratic presidential campaign before Biden exited the race. This cash flow ensures that anti-gun candidates have the resources to push their agenda across the country.

The Real Impact

Everytown’s efforts are nothing new. In 2020, they spent $60 million trying to defeat President Donald Trump and elect more Democrats who support stringent gun control. Yet, despite their spending, the American people have repeatedly shown that they value their right to bear arms.

As we approach the 2024 elections, it’s crucial for supporters of the Second Amendment to remain vigilant. Everytown’s deep pockets and aggressive tactics are a direct threat to the rights enshrined in our Constitution. Gun owners must stand united against these attacks and ensure that the fundamental right to self-defense is preserved for future generations.

Bloomberg and Everytown can spend millions trying to convince Americans to give up their rights, but they cannot silence the voices of millions of law-abiding gun owners who refuse to be disarmed. The fight for freedom continues, and it’s up to each of us to defend our Second Amendment rights against those who would see them eroded.
