Statement by Senator John McCain on President Obama's Executive Action on Gun Control

Date: Jan. 5, 2016
Location: Washington, DC

U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ) released the following statement today on President Obama's executive action on gun control:

"President Obama's executive orders on gun control are just the first of thousands of new unilateral actions that the White House plans to roll out this year that are projected to cost American businesses and consumers hundreds of millions of dollars. With these unconstitutional executive orders, President Obama has once again ignored the separation of powers and disregarded the rule of law. Regardless of merit, this is a classic abuse of executive power. These issues must be debated and decided by the representatives of the people -- not by executive fiat. I will continue to uphold my obligation as an elected official in Congress to push back on all of President Obama's unconstitutional actions."
