Dear gun rights supporter,

I'm writing you this personal note to ask you to do something very
important.

Today I'm asking you to please dig deep and give generously to State
Senator Marilyn Musgrave, a pro-gun champion running for Congress in
Colorado.

Marilyn Musgrave is Colorado's #1 pro-gun State Senator. Now, you
and I must join together and do everything we can to help elect her
to the U.S. Congress.

It's important to go all out for the rare genuine champions like
Marilyn Musgrave who stand up fiercely for our Constitutional Right
to Keep and Bear Arms.

Whether or not you live in Colorado, Marilyn Musgrave will represent
YOU by fighting for YOUR gun rights in Washington.

Senator Musgrave has dedicated herself to defending the rights you
and I hold dear.

That's why I hope you'll agree to join me on Marilyn's team.

PLEASE MAKE A SUBSTANTIAL CONTRIBUTION TO "MUSGRAVE FOR CONGRESS"
TODAY. The legal limit is $1,000 per person ($2,000 per couple).
Whether you can afford this much -- or if for you a gift of $100,
$500 or even $25 or $50 is a sacrifice -- please send Marilyn
Musgrave what you can.

Republican State Senator Marilyn Musgrave understands how vital it
is to oppose any and all attempts to compromise away our precious
Second Amendment rights.

As a candidate, Marilyn Musgrave has always answered the Gun Owners
of America candidate survey 100% pro-gun. Once elected, she has
always kept her word to gun rights supporters.

Senator Musgrave has not only fought and voted AGAINST every piece
of gun control, but she has also led the fight to RESTORE gun rights
that have eroded over the years:

* As a State Senator, she introduced Vermont-style concealed carry
legislation that would restore to law-abiding citizens the right
to carry a firearm -- without a permit and with no
fingerprinting or permission from a government bureaucrat.

* She was only one of 10 Senators to vote against a bill that
would have expanded gun owner registration in the state, and she
voted against an amendment that would have denied a gun to
anyone who was ever arrested (called the "guilty until proven
innocent" provision).

* Moreover, she has demonstrated the ability to get pro-gun
legislation passed -- even over the objections of her party
leadership who in the post-Columbine climate desired not to
entertain any pro-Second Amendment bills.

Against all odds, Musgrave pushed a pro-gun bill through the
Senate (later killed in the House) that would have forced
sheriffs to issue carry permits to any person eligible to
purchase a firearm.

Only by electing pro-gun leaders like Marilyn Musgrave to Congress
can you and I can start to roll back the anti-gun laws that have
inflicted so much damage to our individual liberty.

Marilyn is more than just a pro-gun lady -- she's a gun rights
activist like you and me.

She worked as a political activist before deciding to become a
candidate herself. After serving four years on the School Board,
Marilyn served two terms in the State House of Representatives and
was then elected to the State Senate in 1998.

Today, she is the front-runner for the Republican nomination in
this STRONGLY REPUBLICAN district.

That means if you and I can help Marilyn raise the money, she is
very likely to win!

I hope you'll make your most generous contribution of $1,000, $500,
$250, $100, $50, $25 or whatever you can by donating online at:
http://www.musgrave2002.com

You can also send checks to:

Musgrave for Congress
15484 Road 18.5
Fort Morgan, CO 80701

Marilyn is running for the Republican nomination in Colorado's
Fourth Congressional District -- which will be an open,
overwhelmingly Republican seat next year.

To get elected to Congress she will need $500,000, but MARILYN MUST
RAISE $50,000 IN THE NEXT 15 DAYS to be able to put the gun control
lobby and the liberal media elite on notice that her campaign is to
be reckoned with.

That's why I'm asking you to go to http://www.musgrave2002.com right
now and donate to "Musgrave for Congress" in any amount you can give
-- be it $1,000, $500, $250, $100, $50, $25 or some other amount --
it's that crucial.

I remember a saying I often hear in politics -- "early money is like
yeast," because when a campaign has enough early money it is much
easier to raise more later.

You see, every $1 Marilyn raises now is worth $5 or more by election
day. Your contribution today is crucial to encourage others to
invest in Marilyn's campaign.

If you decide to mail a check instead of donating online, please
print and clip the Reply Form below and mail it -- along with your
check -- right away. (Sorry; federal law says that your freedom of
speech cannot be financed with a company check, so please send a
personal check.)

Regardless, it would be helpful if you write "GOA" on the memo line
of your check, or type "GOA" into the Comments box if contributing
online -- that way the Musgrave campaign can see exactly where the
money is coming from. We must let Marilyn know that gun rights
supporters are fully behind her.


Yours for the Second Amendment,

Larry Pratt
Executive Director
