.LindseyGrahamSC and other SenJudiciaryGOP members are leading the charge to codify SCOTUS's landmark Second Amendment decisions that protect the right to bear arms for law-abiding citizens. The bill is called the Respect for the Second Amendment Act.
Sen. Lindsey Graham and other Republican members of the Judiciary Committee are leading the charge to codify the Supreme Court's landmark Second Amendment decisions, arguing Democrats are committing a"frontal assault" on the constitutional amendment.
"The chaos that the Bruen decision has caused was predictable," Sen. Dick Durbin , the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said. “The Supreme Court has imposed a radical new framework.” Meanwhile, Graham used his time during the hearing to interview gun rights and pro-policing advocates who argued instances of gun violence stem from systematic problems with the criminal justice system.
Sen. John Kennedy , a co-sponsor of Graham's bill, said Thursday the proposal was also inspired by the Democrats' passage of the Respect for Marriage Act last year, which codified the Supreme Court's 2015 decision that permitted same-sex marriages. The National Rifle Association issued a statement supporting the codification bill, saying the decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen affirmed the right to defend oneself"does not disappear at a person's front door."
