Issue Position: Promoting Common Sense Gun Laws

Issue Position

Representative Martinez Fischer Fischer believes that gun violence is a product of social acceptance, and he refuses to believe that we should accept 30,000 gun related deaths a year nationwide, simply due to a fear of political retribution.

Rep Martinez Fischer was the most vocal opponent of both the Open Carry and Campus Carry bills. Despite both bills being forced through the Legislature by large Republican majorities, he was able to amend Campus Carry legislation to allow colleges and universities to determine where on their campuses guns will and will not be allowed.

Rep Martinez Fischer has proudly held a D rating from the NRA, even before his opposition of Campus Carry and Open Carry legislation. He remains committed to stopping bills that would make it easier for individuals to obtain a firearm without going through a proper background check or obtaining a permit.
