WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) issued the following statement of opposition to the Senate gun control legislation:
“I am committed to policies addressing mental
health and securing our schools, but I cannot condone the infringement on
Americans’ constitutionally guaranteed Second Amendment liberties. Further,
this bill was crafted without any committee process or refining amendments. It
is past time for the Senate to function within its rules and designed
structure. At the end of the day, I cannot support legislation which restricts
the Second Amendment right to bear arms for law-abiding American citizens.”
