Everyone on this forum interested in protecting their 2nd Amendment rights should write a simple email to the address below.  You can write alot, or you can simply write something like, "I support rescending the USACE rules restricting lawful carry of firearms on USACE properties and reserviors."  That will take all of a couple of minutes of your time and will help to eliminate one of the most gross violations of your constitutional right to bear arms.  They need to be simply overwhelmed on this one.  The email link is the simplest way to do it.  

Do not forget to put COE-2018-0008 in your subject line.  See below:

US Corps of Engineers wants comments on regulation of firearms on USACE projects
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers publishes request for comment on proposed revision to regulation governing possession of firearms

Published April 13, 2020

WASHINGTON, DC --The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) today published in the Federal Register a request for comments on a proposed revision to its regulation governing the possession and transportation of firearms at USACE-managed Water Resources Development Projects.
Comments may be submitted one of the following ways on or before June 12, 2020:

The Federal eRulemaking Portal http://www.regulations.gov. The docket number is COE-2018-0008. Instructions for submitting comments are provided on the portal.
E-mail: [email protected]. Include the docket number, COE-2018-0008, in the subject line of the message.
Mail: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Attn: CECW-CO-N, Steve Austin, 3F68, 441 G Street NW, Washington, DC 20314-1000

The proposed revision to Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Section 327.13 will align USACE regulations with those of other federal land management agencies and will more appropriately reflect the requirements of current state and local laws authorizing the possession of firearms by individuals. The revision will also eliminate the requirement for individuals to obtain written permission from a District Commander to carry a firearm on USACE-managed lands and waters.

Since the last amendment of this regulation in 2000, many states have passed laws or amended existing laws to provide for the carrying of firearms by private individuals, in particular for self-defense purposes. In addition, the firearm regulations of other federal land management agencies have been amended in recent years to make them more consistent with the law of the state in which the federal lands are located. The current regulation prohibits the possession of firearms unless being used for hunting, at authorized shooting ranges, or if written permission has been received from the District Commander.

There were 200+ comments as of yesterday.  I've heard it has surpassed 500.  We need thousands upon thousands.  Hopefully, it will have an impact.
