Welcome to the GCLA

The purpose and objective of Gateway Civil Liberties Alliance, is to preserve and protect the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America.
If you are an individual who is tired of seeing our constitutional rights trampled upon, it’s time to join an organization dedicated to the preservation of the Bill of Rights as originally intended by our founding fathers.
We hope you will find the information and links in this site helpful in preserving your right to protect yourself. Be sure to check out our newsletter for the latest news about the GCLA and gun rights.
Our next monthly meeting is scheduled for
Thursday, January 8, 2025, 7:00 pm
President’s Corner

Midterm elections are fast approaching. There are several candidates that are seeking office. GCLA will have a selection of candidates speaking at our upcoming members’ meetings. Please plan to attend and encourage these pro Second Amendment candidates. Missouri has a majority of legislators that are receptive to improving our Second Amendment rights. The question is how to motivate them to act on it. This new group of office seekers needs to be motivated and make it work for the benefit of Missouri. No more “go along to get along”.
This may be the time to buy extra ammunition, the price of imported brands that are competitively priced may be increasing due to tariffs on that country. Watch for changes.
Also watch for email blasts on upcoming GCLA Members’ Meetings with guest speakers, plan to come out enjoy the lite meal before the meeting, socialize with everyone and bring a guest! Those of you who have not had Piekutowski’s Kra-kow sausage are in for a great experience.
Hope to see you at the next GCLA monthly
President, GCLA
