Marco Rubio joins the Paul-Lee-Cruz trio in opposition of gun control legislation
A letter sent to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid last week opposing any legislation coming out of the Senate that would infringe on a citizens right to bear arms as specified in the Second Amendment has a new member–Florida Senator Marco Rubio.
In joining this effort, Rubio added, “We should look for ways to keep firearms out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill prone to misusing them, but I oppose legislation that will be used as a vehicle to impose new Second Amendment restrictions on responsible, law-abiding gun owners. We should work to reduce tragic acts of violence by addressing violence at its source, including untreated mental illness, the lack of adequate information-sharing on mental health issues, and the breakdown of the family.”
