President Donald J. Trump to Deliver Keynote Address At NRA’s Defend the 2nd Event in Savannah, GA

Today, the National Rifle Association of America (NRA) announced that President Donald J. Trump will serve as the special guest keynote speaker at the NRA’s “Defend the 2nd” event in Savannah, GA, on Tuesday, October 22nd.

When it comes to preserving and strengthening our Constitutional rights in America, the stakes could not be higher in this presidential election. No matter your reason for owning a firearm—whether for hunting, self-defense, or just as an exercise of your Constitutional right--law-abiding gun owners have a clear choice this fall if they hope to preserve their Second Amendment rights.

Kamala Harris has made clear her intention to infringe on gun owners’ rights by outlawing some of the most popular guns in America, taking so-called red flag laws to the federal level, and even making government-dictated safe storage a punishable offense. Her long record of support for radical anti-gun measures makes clear she will act on her promises and beyond.

As President, Donald Trump never wavered in his support of the Second Amendment and served as a steadfast advocate for NRA members, solidifying his legacy as a true champion of the right to keep and bear arms. In addition to being a Life member of the NRA, President Trump has the full endorsement of the NRA Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) for this election.

NRA Executive Vice President & CEO Doug Hamlin commented, "This election is a pivotal one for America’s gun owners. Kamala Harris and her far-left allies have big plans to erode Second Amendment protections. Donald J. Trump has proven himself a fighter for Americans’ right to keep and bear arms. We are excited to have him speak at our Defend the 2nd event and to support his return to the White House in January."

Randy Kozuch, Executive Director of NRA-ILA, added, "President Trump is a fighter. Despite being falsely portrayed as a threat to the country he loves and surviving two attempts on his life, he continues to fight for the American people. Gun owners and hunters need him in Washington to continue his strong defense of our right to keep and bear arms. The NRA is proud to support Donald J. Trump and to have him speak at our Defend the 2nd event.”

NRA members and gun owners will gather in support of Second Amendment rights for NRA’s Defend the 2nd event. Attendees will hear from NRA leaders and gun rights champions about what the outcome of the November elections means for our Constitutional freedoms.

WHERE: The Savannah Convention Center, One International Dr, Savannah, GA 31421

WHEN: October 22, 2024, at 5:30 pm ET
