Endorsed by the NRA

The 2nd Amendment is fundamental to who we are as Montanans and Americans. I will never support laws that restrict our freedoms in any way - not one inch. When the 2nd Amendment states "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed," that is not a suggestion or a vague guideline. "Shall not be infringed" means shall not be infringed.

I am honored to be endorsed by the National Rifle Association. I have received a rating of "Aq" for my pro-gun stance - the highest rating a nonincumbent is eligible to receive. Montana is a strong state for 2nd Amendment rights, but the federal government has a history of trying to impose regulations on us. We must stand with the Trump administration in its efforts to deregulate silencers, shotguns, and other firearms that never should have been the federal government's business in the first place.
