The Gag Act

The secretive Left is alive and well in Minnesota.  Chris Dorr, Executive Director of Minnesota Gun Right, wrote to warn that suburban DFL progressive representative, Ryan Winkler is introducing a Gag Bill, HF43, to, in Dorr's words: "If passed, the Gag Act would crush pro-gun voters by prohibiting pro-gun organizations like Minnesota Gun Rights from exposing anti-gun politicians and their anti-gun records around election time.

In other words, anti-gun politicians want to be able to vote to take away your guns during the legislative season and not have to worry about paying a price during election season."

We the people must get involved, get informed, and fight those seeking to take away our freedom of own and carry guns. We need more transparency in government, not less. It is unconstitutional and anti-freedom to ever deny voters the voting record of elected politicians. Their record should open and available to all all the time, and they should directly live with the consequences of their votes and legislative proposals

This supercitizen wrote Winkler as requested by Dorr: 


Dear Representative Winkler:

I have been informed that you are proposing the Gag Act, HF43, to crush pro-gun voters by prohibiting pro-gun organizations like Minnesota Gun Rights from exposing anti-gun politicians and their anti-gun records around election time.

We are sick and tired of liberals and the DFL trying to in secret hide bad votes that deprive voters of freedom and gun rights, and knowledge of whom in office is a friend or an opponent. You should be ashamed of yourself for presenting this secretive, unpatriotic and un-American bill.

We do not need ruling class legislators and their backers to vote in secret to take away gun rights, and then be able to hide what they have been up to at the Legislature. We need to know how each voted, and to take it to the voters. You serve us> It may not be your intent, but the Gag Act will suppress freedom of information, free speech, and violate gun rights. This bill does not serve Minnesotans well. This bill needs defeat early and hard--why do you just not withdraw the bill?

Thanks, Ed Ramsey
