Statement of Senator Jim Risch on his "No" Vote to Confirm Eric Holder
"Attorney General Holder and I have irreconcilable differences concerning the Second Amendment. He has argued its application is limited to states and militias, while I believe it means every individual has the right to keep and bear arms'. Putting someone with that limited view on gun ownership in the role of chief law enforcement officer of the United States is simply a deal
breaker for me."
