Jubilee Underwood let a back-door gun grab sneak through committee without a fight.
HB 222, a back-door red-flag gun ban that:
• Allows firearm restrictions without a criminal conviction • Permits ex parte orders before the accused is heard • Allows employers to initiate “protective-order” proceedings • Uses civil standards rather than the criminal burden of proof
Alaska Gun Rights has completed a candidate survey of the Mat-Su Borough candidates running for Assembly seats on the Mat-Su Borough Assembly. Here are the results.
Michael Bowles and Dana Raffaniello both answered their Candidate Surveys in the affirmative.
Michelle Heun did as well, but we discovered that she has a history of donating to gun-hating leftists. Including: Les Gara, Mark Begich, Forrest Dunbar, and Ethan Berkowitz.

This is what happens when freedom-loving Alaskans stand together.
Thanks to YOU—and hundreds of other Patriots who stepped up to defend their rights—AO 2025-25 and AO 2025-28 have been DEFEATED.
The Anchorage Assembly backed away from these dangerous, unconstitutional proposals because they heard your voice loud and clear.
🔻 AO 2025-25 would’ve criminalized responsible parents, dictated how you store your firearms at home, and opened the door to government overreach. 🔻 AO 2025-28 would’ve punished victims of crime, created vague and unenforceable mandates, and violated Alaska state law.
But they failed—because you refused to be silent.
You sent emails. You made calls. You took action—and it worked.
💥 This is a win not just for Anchorage, but for every gun owner in Alaska.
The fight’s not over, but today, we celebrate a victory for freedom, the Constitution, and common sense.
What’s Next? We’ll remain vigilant. These kinds of proposals will come back under different names, from different angles. But now they know: we’re watching—and we’re ready.
📣 Thank you for standing strong. 👏 Thank you for showing up. 🔔 Thank you for defending your rights.
TWO Ordinances Propose to Attack Gun Rights in Anchorage! Read more below.
The Anchorage Assembly is attempting to pass Ordinance AO 2025-25, a dangerous expansion of government overreach that would punish law-abiding parents for the actions of their children. This ordinance is nothing more than an attempt to chip away at your Second Amendment rights while creating a nanny-state invasion into your private home.
Why AO 2025-25 Must Be Stopped
A Dangerous Assault on our right and duty to defend our loved ones in our own homes, making us vulnerable to burglaries and home invasions.
A Direct Attack on the Second Amendment – This ordinance makes it harder for responsible gun owners to defend their homes and families by imposing burdensome storage requirements. The right to bear arms includes the right to access them when needed most.
A Violation of the Fourth Amendment – This law sets a dangerous precedent, allowing the government to police how citizens store their firearms in their own homes. What’s next? Unwarranted inspections and mandatory home searches?
Criminalizing Law-Abiding Parents – Holding parents criminally responsible for the independent actions of their children is an extreme overreach of government power. This law targets the innocent instead of criminals.
A Government Nanny-State – Anchorage’s government should not dictate how responsible citizens store their firearms. This is a massive invasion of privacy, and it opens the door for even more intrusive government regulations in the future.
UPDATE Below: Another Overreach – Mandatory Reporting of Stolen Firearms
The Anchorage Assembly is also targeting law-abiding gun owners with AO 2025-28, a misguided ordinance that mandates reporting lost or stolen firearms within 48 hours—or face criminal charges.
While disguised as a “public safety” measure, this ordinance penalizes victims of theft rather than focusing on actual criminals. Gun owners who fail to report in time, whether due to delayed discovery or simple oversight, could face a Class B misdemeanor—turning innocent citizens into criminals overnight.
Why AO 2025-28 is Wrong
🔹 Burden on Responsible Gun Owners – The real criminals are the ones stealing firearms, yet this law punishes those who have already suffered a loss. 🔹 Violates Alaska Law – State law (AS 29.35.145) prohibits local firearm regulations, yet the Assembly is once again pushing its own anti-gun agenda. 🔹 Useless for Crime Prevention – Criminals don’t follow laws—you do, and that’s who they’re targeting.

Email the Anchorage Assembly. By using the form below, you can send a pre-written email demanding they reject these unconstitutional ordinances.
Subject: OPPOSE AO 2025-25 and AO 2025-28 – Protect Our Rights!
Anchorage Assembly Members,
I strongly oppose Ordinance AO 2025-25, as it violates the Second Amendment by requiring firearms be locked up and the Fourth Amendment by inviting government overreach into private homes.
I also strongly oppose Ordinance AO 2025-28, as it unfairly punishes law-abiding gun owners by criminalizing delayed reporting of stolen firearms, infringes on Second Amendment rights, and conflicts with Alaska’s state preemption laws.
Both proposals unfairly criminalize responsible Alaskans while failing to stop crime. I urge you to vote NO and stand for personal freedoms and my rights.
Sincerely,

5-27-26 UPDATE: HB89 is now dead for the current legislature! Great work and thank you for standing up for your rights!
3-14-25 UPDATE: HB89 Was heard on March 13th. The Committee was unable to complete the Public Testimony portion for the bill hearing. You can still email your opposition to the Gun Confiscation bill by using the web form or link below.
Alaska’s gun rights are under attack! House Bill 89 (HB89), the Red-Flag Gun Grab bill, is before the House State Affairs Committee.
If passed, this dangerous bill would allow the government to strip Alaskans of their firearms without due process, based on vague (or even false) accusations. We cannot allow our rights to be trampled on!
We need YOU to take action:
✅ Email the Committee NOW and urge them to oppose HB89. You can use the form below to send them a pre-written email message:
House State Affairs Committee:
All gun-grabbing schemes are unconstitutional and unacceptable. HB89 would strip law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment rights without due process, allowing the government to seize an innocent victim’s only means of defense, based on vague accusations.
I urge that you kill House Bill 89 immediately.
Sincerely,
[Your name]

The fight for our Second Amendment rights is now. Time to use your voice, and defend your freedom!
As we expected, anti-gun politicians have introduced dangerous legislation in Juneau this month — House Bill 89 — a gun-confiscation scheme disguised as a “Red-Flag” law.
These laws trample on your constitutional right to keep and bear arms, violating fundamental due process protections and leaving law-abiding gun owners with little to no recourse.
Time and again, we’ve seen these laws weaponized in other states, stripping innocent people of their rights and making them even more vulnerable to future victimization.
If you signed one of our petitions opposing Red-Flag laws, thank you!
Your voice, alongside thousands of others, strengthens the fight to defend our freedoms.
By exercising your 1st Amendment rights, you’re helping to safeguard your 2nd Amendment rights!
We’ve been working tirelessly to educate Alaskans on the dangers of these unconstitutional schemes.
With your continued support, we’ll keep mobilizing against this blatant attack on our liberties.
Stay tuned for updates and opportunities to take action.
