2nd Amendment

I am completely open about where I stand on gun rights: I support them 100%. I’m proud of my “A” rating from the NRA and high scores from the VCDL. Every session I’ve introduced and supported legislation to protect the rights of gun owners. And I've fought back against Gov. McAuliffe, Gov. Northam, AG Herring and other Democrats’ plans to strip Virginian gun owners of their rights.

While a few Democrats say the right things about the 2nd Amendment, almost all of them line up to help Gov. McAuliffe, Gov. Northam and others push for new gun control.

If you support gun freedom, I am on your side.
