Issue Position: Second Amendment Rights

As an avid sportsman, a lifetime hunter and outdoorsman, Jeff understands the importance of protecting our right to keep and bear arms and will be a steadfast champion of defending the Second Amendment.

Some of the issues that Jeff will support in Congress include:

* Allowing the government to sell confiscated firearms, many of which are collectors items, to law-abiding citizens with the money used to reduce government budget deficits.
* Supporting the District of Columbia Personal Protection Act to end Washington, DC's gun ban and allow its residents to defend themselves and their homes. Jeff will be closely watching the Supreme Court's decision in the case of District of Columbia v. Heller in which the Court may settle the question of whether the Second Amendment provides a right to individual Americans to keep and bear arms.
* Providing protection to gun manufacturers from frivolous litigation by anti-gun lawyers.

Jeff will also support the DCM Marksmanship Program, interstate recognition of concealed carry permits, and better access for sportsmen to federal properties suitable for hunting and target shooting.

Jeff is an elected representative on the Pikes Peak Firearms Coalition Political Action Committee Steering Committee. Jeff will defend the US Constitution as our elected representatives are sworn to do and will never compromise the rights and freedoms it guarantees us.
