  • Senator Suzy Glowiak Hilton fight to defend criminals. Who defends us?

  • Senator Doris Turner wants gun owners to think she's pro-gun. Don't believe it. The truth, she leaves the Senate floor to be marked 'absent' almost every time a gun control bill hits the floor! 🤣

  • Senator Mike Halpin wants us to think he's pro-gun. But that's not true, and Mike knows it. And while Halpin backs Pritzker's gun control in Springfield, criminals run wild and we're left defenseless.

  • 🚨 Senate Democrats just filed S. 4339 -- the Gun Control Mega Bill -- a 50+ page long gun control bill designed to obliterate our gun rights by combining an AR-15 ban, gun registration, limiting how many guns we can buy, federal ‘Red Flags’ and much more! The Democrats aren’t hiding it: they want to disarm all of us! FIGHT BAC: Sign your petition telling Senators Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin that voting for this will crush their party in the November midterms!

  • ❌ Gun Control Alert! Democrats are done waiting! They just filed a 50+ page bill that would forever cripple the Second Amendment in America. An AR-15 ban, forced gun registration, a national ‘Red Flag’ law, rationing gun sales...and more. But this is an election year, and voting for S. 4339 will hurt the Democrats nationally! Take Action: Sign your petition reminding Senators Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin that voting for this bill will crush Democrats in the midterms!

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
