GOA’s 2025 Summit Accelerates with Paxton and Massie taking the Wheel… and the Podium
The fight for your rights is about to hit the launch pad in a big way. G.O.A.L.S. 2025 – Gun Owners of America’s premiere Advocacy and Leadership Summit – just added two of the loudest, most unflinching defenders of the Second Amendment: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and Congressman Thomas Massie. Their arrival turns what was already a major event into a full-blown, no-apologies rallying cry for gun rights nationwide. This isn’t just another gun show—it’s a war room for liberty.
G.O.A.L.S. 2025 – the latest Gun Owners Advocacy and Leadership Summit – is set to take place on August 9th and 10th and is already drawing a huge crowd of attendees. The show will feature a number of showcases and speakers and just added two big ones that fans won’t want to miss.
First up is Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a consistent defender of constitutional liberties. He’s worked alongside the Gun Owners of America on many occasions, and is proud to be attending the event.
He noted, “I’m excited to be joining patriots from all across the country at GOALS 2025 to discuss the important work being done to protect our 2nd Amendment rights. For years, I’ve stood shoulder to shoulder with Gun Owners of America, and I’m honored to be joining this year’s event as we continue to fight to defend Americans’ Constitutional freedoms.”
And also joining the show is Congressman Thomas Massie, who has defended the Constitution on many occasions and continues to fight for the betterment of the country.
Massie said, “I look forward to speaking at the Gun Owners Advocacy and Leadership Summit (GOALS). As co-chairman of the Second Amendment Caucus, I work regularly with Gun Owners of America to protect Americans’ constitutional right to keep and bear arms. GOA is an effective advocate on behalf of the SAFER Voter Act, a bill I introduced to repeal the federal law that prevents 18-, 19-, and 20-year-old adults from purchasing handguns from Federal Firearm License holders. I appreciate the important role GOA plays in securing legislative victories for the nation’s gun owners.”
A spokesman for the Gun Owners of America – either Stephen Willeford or Mark Jones – joins us now to discuss its growing significance and why fans of the community won’t want to miss it!
