Political Quotes

“Mr. Chair, my amendment No. 92 would prohibit funding for President Biden's new Office of Gun Violence Prevention. Since President Biden took office in January of 2021, our Second Amendment rights have been under assault. Now, with the stroke of a pen, President Biden created the Office of Gun Violence Prevention, allowing his administration to bypass Congress unilaterally and implement the left's gun control agenda. This office would be overseen by Vice President Kamala Harris and staffed with radical former gun control lobbyists, allowing the swamp to have total control of Biden's gun control agenda. In Montana, 64 percent of the households have firearms. Montanans will not go along with the White House's attempt to undermine our Second Amendment rights. People often say, what are they afraid of out there in Montana? Why do they need so many firearms? I will tell you, we are not afraid of anything, and it is because we do have our firearms. It is unacceptable for the hard-earned tax dollars of gun owners in Montana to fund the salaries of unelected, gun-grabbing bureaucrats who are hell-bent on branding law-abiding, responsible gun owners as criminals. My amendment would throw a wrench in the gun control lobbyists' plans and severely hamper the Biden administration's ability to impose further restrictions on our Second Amendment rights. It is time we drained the swamp and kicked the gun control lobby out of the White House. I reserve the balance of my time.”
