Grasso Holdings Makes Sizable Contribution to NSSF’s Protect Liberty PAC Ahead of 2024 Election

$10,000 Contribution Bolsters Protect Liberty PAC‘s Efforts to Protect Americans’ Freedoms and Liberties, Including Our Second Amendment Rights

The NSSF’s Protect Liberty Political Action Committee (Protect Liberty PAC) received a sizable contribution from Grasso Holdings that will be utilized to help identify and support the election of candidates who are dedicated to preserving and protecting liberty, freedom and the Constitutional rights of all Americans. The $10,000 contribution will benefit Protect Liberty PAC’s efforts ahead of the November 2024 election to ensure voters in key battleground states and congressional districts across the country are informed about candidates who will fight for their Constitutional rights and not carry out a “woke,” progressive, far left political agenda that threatens those rights.

“We are extremely grateful for the generous contribution from Grasso Holdings and for the leadership of Ed Grasso and his belief in Protect Liberty PAC’s mission to elect candidates who will fight for our liberties and freedoms, including the Second Amendment,” said Lawrence G. Keane Protect Liberty PAC’s Treasurer. “We face many challenges ahead of Election Day in November, including what those election results will mean for the future of our entire industry. We hope more businesses in the firearm, ammunition, hunting, recreational and shooting sports industry will consider following Ed Grasso’s example and support Protect Liberty PAC – their industry’s super PAC.”

“I’ve always considered the NSSF as the leading force for our industry – the entire industry, specifically – and for me to support Protect Liberty PAC is an easy decision and we need all the help we can get,” stated Grasso Holdings CEO Ed Grasso. “It’s critical that we do all we can to help NSSF’s Protect Liberty PAC to be successful in its mission because there are hundreds of thousands of hard-working, law-abiding Americans in our industry and we want to keep it that way.”

Protect Liberty PAC is a federally registered “super PAC” founded in 2023 by NSSF. Protect Liberty PAC is an independent-expenditure only political committee and can accept unlimited personal and corporate contributions from companies in or outside of the industry, so long as they do not have federal contracts. Protect Liberty PAC will expressly advocate for the election or defeat of specific candidates and that advocacy will be completely independent of any candidate or political party.

Contributions to Protect Liberty PAC are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes. Federal law requires Protect Liberty PAC to use its best efforts to collect and report the name, mailing address, occupation and the name of employer of individuals whose contributions exceed $200 in a calendar year. Protect Liberty PAC can accept unlimited personal and corporate contributions. However, contributions from foreign nationals, federal contractors, national banks, and federally chartered corporations are prohibited.
