The Second Amendment is a fundamental right that must be protected for all law-abiding Americans. However, some states impose excessive barriers on responsible gun owners, making it unnecessarily difficult to exercise their constitutional freedoms.
Protecting Gun Rights & Responsible Ownership
🔹 Ensure all states comply with federal laws on background checks
🔹 Defend the rights of law-abiding citizens to bear arms
🔹 Oppose excessive restrictions that infringe upon constitutional freedoms
While protecting gun rights, we must also implement reasonable safeguards to keep firearms out of the hands of criminals and those who pose a danger to society.
