WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, strongly applauds President Donald Trump for his Executive Order this evening announcing that his White House believes not only that the Second Amendment should be protected for all law-abiding Americans, but that once again this sacred Constitutional right will be revered. President Trump’s Executive Order makes clear that his stated promises throughout the campaign to all Americans will be kept and his word honored.
“The announcement this evening by President Donald Trump that he is taking swift and thorough actions to protect not just the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans, but also the industry that provides the means to exercise that sacred right, is welcomed news and should be celebrated by all gun owners,” stated Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President for Government and Public Affairs and General Counsel. “For the past four years, the previous president and his administration attacked law-abiding gun owners and the lawful firearm industry at every opportunity, crippling small businesses and turning law-abiding Americans into criminals overnight, all while trampling on Constitutional rights and ignoring laws passed by Congress. No more – gone are those days. President Trump’s welcomed Executive Order means those exercising their rights to keep and bear arms will be able to continue protecting their loved ones, homes and property and do so knowing the President of the United States has their back.
Thank you, President Trump. The firearm industry looks forward to working with you to keep Americans safe, while at the same time honoring and protecting the U.S. Constitution.”
