U.S. Senator Rand Paul yesterday introduced S. 1839, the Service Members Self Defense Act of 2015. This legislation was offered as a stand-alone bill and as an amendment to H.R. 22, the vehicle for the highway bill. This legislation would amend permit members of the armed forces to possess firearms on military installations in accordance with applicable state and local law.

"I find it ridiculous that the brave men and women serving in our armed forces are asked to defend us overseas but cannot protect themselves once they return home. My bill ensures that our honorable service members are allowed to protect themselves while serving our nation at home," Sen. Paul said.
