The following organizations have lent monetary, grassroots or some other type of direct support to anti-

gun organizations. In many instances, these organizations lent their name in support of specific

campaigns to pass anti-gun legislation such as the March 1995 HCI "Campaign to Protect Sane Gun

Laws." Many of these organizations were listed as "Campaign Partners," for having pledged to fight any

efforts to repeal the Brady Act and the Clinton "assault weapons" ban. All have officially endorsed anti-

gun positions.
