This progressive veteran under attack from the NRA




Buying An Assault Rifle with No Background Check


Published on Apr 30, 2018
Dan Helmer, Army veteran and candidate for Congress in Virginia's 10th District, was able to walk into a gun show and buy an assault rifle in less time than it takes to buy a cup of coffee.

Dan Helmer is a progressive veteran who served in Afghanistan and is running for Congress in a very competitive Virginia congressional district.

He also made a big enemy last week: the NRA.

Why? Because he filmed an undercover video of himself buying an assault weapon without a background check. It took him 10 minutes. The people selling it laughed as they asked if he was a felon.

So now the NRA is trying to tear Dan down. It’s up to us to lift him up.



This race is eminently winnable, and Dan is the one with the best chance. The road to retaking Congress runs right through this struggle with the NRA.

Chip in to help put progressive veteran Dan Helmer over the top.

Thanks for your support. It will go a long way in this race.
