Trump and Republicans Push PROTECT Act, Concealed Carry Reciprocity, and National Constitutional Carry Bills to Defend Second Amendment

Republican lawmakers have expressed strong support for gun rights, emphasizing the restoration and protection of Second Amendment rights following policies enacted during the Biden administration. Former President Donald Trump has been recognized for his efforts to restore gun rights. In Congress, several bills have been introduced to safeguard these rights, including the PROTECT the Second Amendment Act, which prevents landlords or rental property managers receiving taxpayer financial assistance from restricting tenants' gun rights. Additionally, the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act aims to allow law-abiding citizens to carry concealed firearms across state lines. Other legislative efforts include the National Constitutional Carry Act and a resolution reaffirming support for the Second Amendment, commending the President's actions to protect American gun owners. Lawmakers highlight that gun rights are viewed as civil rights and stress their commitment to upholding these protections.
