Congressman A. Donald McEachin (VA-04) issued this statement following his vote against H.R. 38 -- the Right to Carry Reciprocity Act:
"Today's vote on Right to Carry Reciprocity could make the weakest state concealed carry rule reign as the law of the land and jeopardize the safety of millions. I stand committed to fighting for comprehensive gun reform in Congress just as I did during my time in the General Assembly. Innocent men, women, and children deserve more than what House Republicans offered them today. We should be identifying and addressing our present gun violence problems instead of weakening states' laws."
