I thank very much Representative Biggs, one of our strongest defenders of the Second Amendment here in the body. If the left wants to address this issue, let's be up-front about it. Let's be honest about it. Let's stop trying to undermine the Second Amendment through changes in statute. Let's stop trying to strip away people's rights by inserting something into a law that later would be struck down by the Supreme Court. If you want to be honest and up-front about stripping away people's rights, then come to this floor, propose an amendment to the Constitution, debate it here on the floor, send it to the United States Senate, see if you can get that done. Then send it back to the people of the United States and see how they feel about it. That is how this is supposed to take place. You cannot violate the Constitution and strip away people's rights. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Colorado (Mrs. Boebert), my good friend.
