Issue Position: Our Bill of Rights

Issue Position

I am a strong believer in the rights spelled out in our Constitution, and realize that those rights are absolute and God given to every man, woman, and child. As a member of the Federal and State Affairs Committee, I have opportunity to stand up for those rights by offering up legislation. My freshman year we passed The Second Amendment Protection Act. This law carries some of the strongest language in an anti-gun control bill in the nation today. I am proud to say that I successfully added an amendment to this bill which clarified the wording and protects local law enforcement while they are performing their lawful duties. I also sponsored a bill which would have protected all Kansas citizens from unlawful denial of our right to due process including indefinite detention, had it been passed into law. I hold our liberties dear to my heart and will fight for all of them and the sovereignty of our great state as long as I hold this office.
