That is why I voted no today on the Democrat-led bills that are nothing short of blatant gun grabs and attacks on our constitutional rights. Washington Democrats don’t understand the part of the Constitution that says our Second Amendment rights ‘shall not be infringed.’ “Thankfully, our strong leadership in Tennessee understands what Democrats in Washington don’t. Our state legislature is currently advancing legislation to strengthen Second Amendment rights by implementing permitless carry. This is the second time this week Tennessee has served as a common-sense contrast to Washington, D.C. While House Democrats on Tuesday passed a union boss handout bill that included repeals of state right-to-work laws, Tennessee’s Senate approved a right-to-work constitutional amendment. I am grateful to live in a well-run state, and folks in D.C. should take notes on how to replicate Tennessee’s success.” ### Issues : Second Amendment Congress Number 117th Congress March 11, 2021 Press Release March 11, 2021
