We have assigned pluses to the yeas because the fundamental right of the American people to keep and bear arms should not be infringed, as guaranteed by the 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. State government has a duty to secure the individual and unalienable right to self-defense of one’s life, liberty, and property, regardless of a declared “disaster emergency.”
