Hinson Recognized for Protecting Second Amendment Rights

"The Harris-Biden Administration continues to target law-abiding gun owners and push thinly veiled attempts at gun control. I will continue working to protect the Second Amendment rights of law abiding gun owners, who care deeply about gun safety and combating violence, and should not be demonized by this Administration." - Congresswoman Ashley Hinson

"The 2024 NSSF Congressional Report Card is a comprehensive analysis of our elected representatives’ positions on firearm and ammunition industry priorities in the 118^th Congress. The Report Card’s grades are based on key votes, co-sponsorships, committee activity, floor speeches, and other official actions by Senators and Members of the U.S. House of Representatives. Members of our industry are grateful to have so many strong allies in the Halls of Congress. NSSF is proud to especially recognize Representative Hinson as a member of the new NSSF Congressional Dean’s List for her exemplary leadership in supporting the firearm and ammunition industry and the nearly 400,000 hardworking Americans employed in the industry. Making the Dean’s List is special recognition that Rep. Hinson has gone above and beyond to protect and preserve the Second Amendment rights of her constituents and the industry that makes the exercise of those rights possible. We applaud Rep. Hinson for her exemplary level of support.” - Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President for Government & Public Affairs and General Counsel.
