Second Amendment Sisters
Second Amendment Sisters, Inc. (SAS) was a United States women's gun rights advocacy group that supported gun use for self defense and empowerment. According to a 2003 Los Angeles Times article, SAS was founded in December 1999 by five women who were "outraged" by the Million Mom March.[3] The national organization closed in 2015, though individual state chapters continue to operate independently.[4]
