Your 2A rights are on the chopping block as Virginia Dems plot insane gun bans
Gun Owners of America says the bills unconstitutionally target the most commonly owned firearms in America
By Chris Stone Fox News
Published March 23, 2026 9:00am EDT

The Commonwealth of Virginia, once the cradle of American liberty and the home of the Bill of Rights, is witnessing a historic betrayal in real time.

On March 14, the Virginia General Assembly wrapped up their 2026 legislative session and rammed through over 15 pieces of anti-gun legislation.  In just 60 days, the anti-gun left has nearly undone gun rights for millions of law-abiding Virginia residents.

Their crown jewel of tyranny? SB 749 and HB 217, two so-called "assault weapons" ban bills.

These identical bills landed at the desk of newly elected Democrat Gov. Abigail Spanberger during the final days of the legislative session and are currently awaiting her signature.

She has promised to sign them into law. 

For years, Gun Owners of America (GOA) and our dedicated members have stood against these unconstitutional infringements as they’ve popped up in state legislatures all around the country.

Just a few weeks ago, through overwhelming grassroots activism and pressure from gun rights organizations like GOA, a similar "assault weapons" ban was defeated in New Mexico. And last year in Virginia, former Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin vetoed over 27 anti-gun bills – including an "assault weapons" ban.

But with the election of billionaire Michael Bloomberg-backed Spanberger in November 2025, the governor’s seat is now occupied by a rubber stamp for the radical gun control lobby. Anti-gun Democrats also flipped over a dozen pro-gun seats in the Virginia House of Delegates while also maintaining a slim majority in the Virginia Senate.

All residents need to become members of VCDL and GOA.

Those gun bans only apply to law abiding residents.  Criminals are (effectively) exempt because they don't follow the law.

Most of the Democrats who authored and passed this law will also ignore it.

A Fishrrman "unwelcome™" prediction:
Almost all of these new gun laws will survive.
If not ALL of them.

The chance of them being overturned by the VA legislature is... not much better than zero.
The chance of them being overturned by the VA state courts is... well, probalby not so good.
The chance of them being overturned by the federal courts...?

A question:
What existing state law banning the sale of AR-15 rifles has been overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court?

Those new gun laws fly in the face of both Heller and Gruen, and will eventually be struck down in federal court but it will take 2-3 years for it to happen.
