BELLEVUE, WA – The 41st annual Gun Rights Policy Conference—co-sponsored by the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) and Second Amendment Foundation (SAF)—is scheduled the weekend of Sept. 25-27 at the Westin Dallas-Fort Worth Airport hotel in Dallas, Texas.
Since its launch in 1985, the Gun Rights Policy Conference (GRPC) has grown to become one of the most significant annual gatherings of Second Amendment leaders, scholars, legal minds and grassroots activists on the map. Each year, it draws the top minds in the firearms community for a weekend of reports, panel discussions, networking and planning, with representatives from virtually all national gun rights organizations, along with many state-level groups and local activists.
“For the Citizens Committee, the GRPC has become a valuable outreach opportunity, where we talk with, and listen to, people who literally represent ‘boots-on-the-ground’ involvement across the country,” noted CCRKBA Managing Director Andrew Gottlieb. “One of the goals of the conference is that everyone comes away with some new information, and maybe new perspectives on how to advance the gun rights agenda.
“Ultimately,” he added, “what we accomplish with each GRPC is to move the ball closer to fully restoring the Second Amendment to its rightful place as the cornerstone of our Bill of Rights. We’re encouraging everyone to mark their calendars right now for this important event.”
Gottlieb said early planning is already underway, and in the months ahead, a list of speakers will be put together, and he expects to have a program which offers something for everyone who attends. With the midterm elections coming only six weeks after this year’s conference, the timing could not be more strategic, he noted.
“This conference has grown to feature politicians, podcasters, social influencers, professional and citizen journalists and devoted activists and advocates,” Gottlieb said. “With so much at stake in 2026, this year’s GRPC promises to be an event people won’t want to miss.”
