Hudson Won’t Back Down on Second Amendment
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08) released the following statement responding to President Obama’s plans to take executive action to unilaterally restrict Americans’ Second Amendment rights:
“After seeing his gun control agenda fail in the Democratic-controlled Senate last Congress, President Obama is once again resorting to unilateral executive action to achieve his goal. This latest effort to unconstitutionally restrict one of our most fundamental rights would not have prevented recent mass shootings. Instead, the president’s actions would enable a national gun registry, trample the rights of law-abiding citizens, and could actually have a chilling effect on people seeking help for mental illness. The president should listen to the American people and work with Congress on reforms that would actually reduce gun violence, like confronting our mental health crisis and preventing criminals and terrorists from entering our country. I have fought the president’s liberal gun control agenda tooth and nail, and I won’t back down now.”
Rep. Hudson has fought against the president’s dangerous and unprecedented abuse of executive power at every turn. In June, Rep. Hudson’s amendment to stop President Obama’s “green-tip” bullet ban passed the House and helped put intense pressure on the administration to abandon its unilateral attempt to restrict our Second Amendment rights.
