2A-Sanctuary-Movement
Welcome to the UGE 2A Sanctuary Coordination Page.
Page created: February 12, 2020
Page last updated: August 2, 2021
Question: What is a 2A Sanctuary County?
Answer: A 2A Sanctuary County refers to a county that has adopted a Resolution or passed an Ordinance to prohibit or impede the enforcement of certain gun control measures that infringe on the Second Amendment.
Question: What is the difference between a 2A Sanctuary Resolution and a 2A Sanctuary Ordinance?
Answer: Where Resolution is a statement of intent and or purpose, an Ordinance is a binding law enacted by a municipal body, such as a city council or county commission.
The purpose of this page is to provide needed information for people who want to coordinate in the effort to create 2A Sanctuary Counties.

- Begin working with the Coordinator if one is already appointed, or begin working the process below.
- Email and call your Commission & Sheriff offices and let them know you are working with a group to get a 2A Sanctuary County Resolution on their meeting agenda; get everyone you know to do the same.
- Gather any additional or updated information when you connect with the Commission Office, Sheriffs office and any other entity.
