Issue Position: Gun Violence Prevention

Issue Position

I hold a concealed carry permit from the state of Virginia and have respect for gun ownership. I also believe that common sense gun safety laws are an important part of our 2nd Amendment rights.

I will:

*Support background checks with a waiting period
*Support closing the Gun Show Loophole and cracking down on straw purchases
*Support efforts to keep guns out of the hands of those who are severely mentally ill and increase access to mental health care.
*Support a ban on assault weapons
