Issue Position: The Second Amendment

Issue Position

I strongly support the individual Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms, which we have enshrined in Part First, Article 2-a of the New Hampshire Constitution. As a legislator, I have consistently voted to protect Second Amendment rights. I have taken and will continue to take this one step further by sponsoring and voting for measures designed to enhance this important, fundamental individual right. For example, I have voted for Vermont-style open carry laws and other measures. We have to remember that with this important right comes the equally important responsibility of all gun owners to practice common-sense gun safety and learn to properly use firearms. This means protecting and encouraging the operation of shooting ranges, gun clubs, and other opportunities to develop gun skills.
