IEGO_1.2

 



Friend—

IEGO’s been working nonstop to prepare our upcoming voter guide — helping make voting for pro-2A candidates and issues absurdly easy and without question.

We’re not far from being able to tell you more about our MASSIVE deployment plan, but we still need to ensure our funding’s in place to be able to execute it.

Can you chip in and help us take on the anti-gun politicians?

If we get every Inland Empire 2A voter one of these guides, they’ll have the knowledge they need to be able to grow our Second Amendment freedoms both at the regional AND state level!

That’s why this is so critical, so anything you can do helps.

Stay free, 

-Karla Talley

your vote matters

November is right around the corner! Do you have any local candidates you want us to endorse or are you a candidate? 

 

Endorsing candidates is an important part of the political process and is a big step towards Inland Empire Gun Owners goal of electing only people who respect our Second Amendment rights.

 

For IEGO, every day is election season and the next election is always right around the corner. IEGO is a unique political organization because we focus entirely on local Second Amendment issues. Because we are unique, it is important to understand the specifics of who, how, and why we endorse.

 

IEGO endorses only county and city level candidates.  We do not endorse state or federal candidates because other organizations do a great job already and we do not want to duplicate efforts. We only endorse candidates for City Council, School Board, County Board of Supervisors, Sheriff, and other local boards like water, fire, etc.

IEGO’s Criteria for Endorsements:

1.    The candidate’s stance on the Second Amendment and Second Amendment issues.  Does the candidate oppose gun bans, ammunition registration, and accessory bans?  Does the candidate support issuing carry permits for the purpose of self-defense?  And will the candidate do more than just say they support the Second Amendment?  We want to support people who will actively work to protect and restore our Second Amendment rights.

2.    The viability of the candidate’s campaign.  By endorsing a candidate, we are asking our members and supporters to donate money and time to their campaign.  Our endorsement is not just a voting guide. We will not ask our members to give time and money to a candidate who does not have the proper infrastructure in place to win or has not done enough to raise the money needed to get their message to voters.  

3.    The candidate’s character.  Even if a candidate is pro-Second Amendment and has a viable campaign, if they have done something that is serious and verifiable to prove they do not have the character to hold public office, we will not endorse.  How can we trust a candidate to do the right thing on the Second Amendment if they cannot do the right thing personally or professionally?

If you have a favorite local candidate or are a candidate, please contact us or email us at [email protected]   We want to make sure candidates get our questionnaire and meet with each candidate. Once a candidate is endorsed, IEGO will encourage our members to volunteer for and donate to endorsed candidates. IEGO spends money on behalf of our endorsed candidates to make sure their voters vote for them.

Throwback Blog: Don’t Vote for Someone Who Is Not Endorsed

By Michael Schwartz 

Dont-vote

Every election season Second Amendment organizations reach out to candidates.  We send questionnaires and meeting requests and it is all an attempt to evaluate their candidacy for possible endorsement.  We want to know if they are pro Second Amendment, viable, and honorable because our next step is to communicate to our membership that support will be needed to get that candidate elected.

This is a process we all take very seriously. Our endorsement not only means the future of the Second Amendment, but it also puts our reputation on the line by telling our membership what candidate deserves their dollar and their time.

Become a #NotMeIE Ambassador

 

NOTME_IE_logo_black

 



The #NotMeIE program is a mentor/mentee referral service run by women for women to help them:
  • Obtain firearms training
  • Get assistance in choosing and purchasing a firearm
  • Obtain a CCW
How does the program work?
A potential client can fill out the application for service on our website. Once received, the project manager reviews the application and assigns the client to an Ambassador. An Ambassador then contacts the client to begin the process of walking them through whatever their firearm needs are. After the client has been successfully helped, their case is closed, and the Ambassador is given a new client to work with. Some of our Ambassadors are also NRA certified trainers. They are very knowledgeable in all aspects of firearms training and purchasing. IEGO also offers an online CCW seminar once a month. Check the IEGO website for upcoming dates. If you are an experienced gun owner and are interested in becoming an Ambassador for the #NotMeIE program please reach out to Karla at [email protected]
