As a supporter of the Second Amendment, I believe the right to bear arms is a fundamental principle upon which the founders built our nation. This right must be preserved for future generations.

"This far-left gun ban violates the Second Amendment and the rights of law-abiding Michiganders to defend themselves. Today’s extreme proposal would ban many of the firearms legally owned by Michigan residents and make them illegal,” said Moolenaar. "Many Democrats would ban all private gun ownership if they could. That’s why I will never stop fighting for the Constitution and the rights of Michigan residents."

“Due-process is a right guaranteed to every American, and no citizen should have that right taken away. I voted against this bill because it would take the hard-earned money of Michigan taxpayers and give it to states so they can enforce unconstitutional laws that deny Americans their due process and Second Amendment rights,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

"Today's ruling is a win for law-abiding citizens who safely exercise their Second Amendment rights. Crime is a serious concern for American families and they have the right to self-defense. New York’s law blatantly infringed upon this right, and the Court was right to strike down this unconstitutional power grab," said Congressman John Moolenaar.

"Due-process is a vital right enjoyed by every American, and no citizen should have that taken away. I voted against this bill because it would allow a judge to take someone’s firearms from them for 14 days without an opportunity for the accused to legally defend themselves,” said Congressman John Moolenaar. “The Constitution is the cornerstone of our nation’s success and we must respect the rights it gives to individuals.”

“This legislation restricts law-abiding Michigan residents who follow the rules and safely exercise their Second Amendment rights every day,” said Congressman John Moolenaar. “Unfortunately, crime is rising in many communities. Citizens have the right to defend themselves, and this legislation would infringe upon that right. A more constructive approach to preventing crime and other tragedies would use common-sense policies that improve security, protect vulnerable people, and enable better communication between law enforcement agencies.”
