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. |

| But any chance of bringing reciprocity/etc. back are DEAD thanks to the likes of Paul Ryan. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
