Intro: American gun owners must vote if they want to continue to have their Second Amendment rights. That is what the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is urging constituents, particularly those registered in key battleground states. Here to discuss why every 2A supporter should cast their ballot is (choose from one of seven expert guests below).
Q&A
1) Why now, more than ever, is it essential that gun owners take action and vote?
Four years ago, with the entire nation expecting Hillary Rodham Clinton to stroll into the Oval Office and immediately declare war on gun rights, the importance of voting became obvious. The situation is now in replay, but with President Donald Trump facing former Vice President Joe Biden. The nation appears divided following a summer of discontent that has rocked major cities.
2) What can gun owners expect from a second term of Trump/Pence?
If Trump can win re-election, he can continue to fill federal court vacancies with constitutional judges. He might fulfill his promise to sign national concealed carry reciprocity legislation. For that to happen, Republicans need to hold the Senate majority.
3) What can gun owners expect from a Biden/Harris presidency?
A recent report at Ammoland News covered a Rasmussen survey’s findings that a majority of voters believe if Joe Biden wins the presidency, his vice president will have to assume office before the end of his first term. That would be vehemently anti-gun California Senator Kamala Harris.
A separate Ammoland report detailed how Biden’s “plan” to reduce so-called “gun violence” would essentially turn the right to keep and bear arms into a government-regulated privilege.
4) When Donald Trump took office, he made a very important pledge to gun
owners. What was that promise and was it kept?
One of his most important campaign pledges was to bring balance to the
federal court system, nominating judges, and Supreme Court justices, with solid
constitutional credentials. We’re delighted to say he’s certainly kept his promise.
To say we are impressed with Judge Amy Coney Barrett would be an understatement.
5) Where can we get more information about the Second Amendment Foundation and the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms?
