Second Amendment
Silent Majority Foundation is a non-profit on the frontlines of the battle for Second Amendment rights. As of 2024, our legal team is involved in FOUR second amendment lawsuits.
WASHINGTON V GATORS CUSTOM GUNS
When Gator's Custom Guns received a Civil Investigative Demand from Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson, they contacted Silent Majority Foundation. When we fought back to challenge the CID, the State Attorney General Filed suit! This crucial second amendment case is now at the Washington State Supreme Court and we are challenging the constitutionality of the so-called "high capacity magazine" ban.

GUARDIAN ARMS V WASHINGTON
On April 25, 2023, Governor Jay Inslee signed SHB1240, banning "assault weapons" under Chapter 9.41 RCW, Firearms and Dangerous Weapons ("Washington Uniform Firearms Act"). SHB1240 unconstitutionally and categorically bans the manufacture, importation, distribution, sale or offer for sale of any "assault weapon." Any violation of the provisions of SHB 1240 is categorized as a gross misdemeanor, punishable by imprisonment in the country jail for up to 364 days, or a fine of not more than $5,000, or by both imprisonment and fine.
Silent Majority Foundation immediately filed a Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction in Grant County Superior Court as SHB1240 immediately and directly infringes on our right to bear arms protected under Article I, Section 24 of the Washington State Constitution. Join us in the fight to restore and protect second amendment rights for generations to come!
BRUMBACK V FERGUSON
On July 14, 2022, Silent Majority Foundation filed a lawsuit in Yakima County Superior Court to challenge Washington State Senate Bill 5078. ESSB 5078 prohibits the manufacturing, importation, distribution, sale and/or offering for sale of "high-capacity" magazines under the guise of "likely" saving lives while
ignoring the blatant infringement on the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens under the Washington State and U.S. Constitutions. The Washington State Attorney General immediately requested to have this case moved to Federal Court which was accepted. Learn more and donate to this crucial second amendment case at the link below.
JOHN DOES 1,3,5 V INSLEE
On March 16, 2023, Silent Majority Foundation filed an Amended Petition for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief requesting the Court enter an injunction against the implementation of the challenged sections of RCW 9.41.190 as detailed in our Amended Complaint. This filing also requests the Court to grant Declaratory Judgment declaring the challenged laws invalid as they impair individuals right to bear arms and violate the right to due process.
HB1705 unconstitutionally and categorically bans, under severe monetary and confinement penalties, the manufacture, sale, transfer, purchase, transport, receipt of, and even possession of untraceable firearms. These bans are a broad attack on Washington’s Constitution and it’s people. Silent Majority Foundation will not let these unconstitutional laws stand!
