While Republicans controlled Congress, gun rights weren’t a major issue for them. Several quality pieces of Second Amendment legislation penned by Rep. Richard Hudson, R-N.C. — such as the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 ( H.R. 38), which garnered the support of more than 200 co-sponsors, and the D.C. Personal Protection Reciprocity Act ( H.R. 2909) introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky. — weren’t a priority for retiring Speaker of the House Paul Ryan. |

| Empty threats. A lot of noise signifying nothing. Any nonsense the House passes will be DOA in the Senate, and failing that, will be vetoed by the President. |

TO REMEMBER |
| By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
