Anti-gun Eric Holder served in the Clinton/Reno Justice Department. Eric Holder is now President Obama's nominee to become Attorney General.
Contacting the U.S. Senators who represent South Carolina is particularly important because Senator Lindsey Graham is on the Judiciary Committee,
which is holding the confirmation hearings on Mr. Holder. It is CRITICAL that you
immediately contact Senators Graham and DeMint and
STRONGLY oppose the confirmation of Eric Holder as Attorney General! Here's why:
Holder has taken the following anti-gun positions:
- Opposes the individual right to keep and bear arms by joining in an amicus brief which supported the DC gun ban in the DC vs Heller Supreme Court case
- Supported a 3-day waiting period for handgun purchases
- Supported one-gun-a-month rationing
- Supported mandatory so-called smart gun technology
- Supported a lifetime gun ban for certain juvenile offenses
- Supported regulating gun shows out of existence
- Supported licensing and registration of all gun owners
GrassRoots GunRights of SC joins other gun rights groups in strongly opposing anti-gun Eric Holder as Attorney General.

Unless you want someone with these extremist anti-gun positions to become Attorney General... Act NOW!
