Massachusetts Carriers Push Back on New Gun Law

Just a few weeks after its passage, gun owners in Massachusetts are already pushing back against the punitive gun control legislation signed into law by Gov. Maura Healey on July 25.

The Gun Owners’ Action League (GOAL) has taken the first step to get enough signatures on a petition to put a measure to repeal the new law on the ballot. Unfortunately, it will be 2026 before citizens can vote on the proposal if all requirements are met to put the matter to a statewide vote.

“We started the process in filing a referendum petition to repeal the law,” GOAL Executive Director Jim Wallace told the State House News Service. “This is a flat-out ban on the Second Amendment regardless of what they tell people. Regardless of what you feel about guns, the law as it stands is unenforceable.”

According to Wallace, GOAL won’t be heading up the referendum effort, rather a special campaign committee will do that.
