About this group

In 1948, Eleanor Roosevelt and her friends had an idea for an organization that would pool the resources of small contributors from across the country and spend those funds to help elect the most progressive candidates to the U.S. Senate and House. NCEC supports progressive candidates who fight for the issues we believe in, like freedom of choice, separation of church and state, gun control, equal rights, and environmental protection.

About this group

The NRA Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) is NRA's political action committee. The NRA-PVF ranks political candidates - irrespective of party affiliation - based on voting records, public statements and their responses to an NRA-PVF questionnaire. NRA relies on a very simple premise: when provided with the facts, the nation's elected officials will recognize that "gun control" schemes are an infringement on the Second Amendment and a proven failure in fighting crime. The importance of this premise lies in the knowledge that, as one U.S. Congressman put it: "The gun lobby is people."

About this group

Wisconsin Gun Owners, Inc. (WGO) works for grassroots gun owners, not politicians. While many gun lobbies fight for 'reasonable gun control', WGO sets a higher standard: Defining the terrain of battle. Sure, many groups claim they're 'pro-gun' — all the while they provide cover for anti-gun deals cut by politicians — but WGO truly informs gun owners, remaining committed to a 100% pro-gun position. We oppose all gun control — regardless of the political party — and work tirelessly to restore the Second Amendment. WGO believes access politics only results in lobbyists getting access to politicians; not results for gun owners. WGO has angered many politicians who would like people to believe that they support gun rights, even when they vote against them.
