Continuing his record of being a leading advocate for the Second Amendment and gun owners' rights, U.S. Senator Rand Paul today introduced the Protecting Gun Rights and Due Process Act.
This legislation would give necessary protection to gun owners by ensuring due process rights are upheld if an individual's eligibility is questioned and reported to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS).
"I refuse to stand idly by while the Obama administration unilaterally strips away gun rights from our nation's veterans and seniors. The Protecting Gun Rights and Due Process Act will provide necessary protection for gun-owning Americans, and ultimately ensure that the Second Amendment is not infringed upon," Sen. Paul said.
This legislation has gained support from Gun Owners of America and the National Association of Gun Rights.
