GENE TAYLOR C RATING WITH GUN OWNERS OF AMERICA

Congressman Taylor the wrong way on this bill 4 different times; either against good amendments, to protect firearm owners on new public lands; or a yes vote for the bill as a whole. Don’t let him lie and say he is pro-gun. Congressman Taylor should be challenged.

National Parks Gun Ban (2). On March 25, 2009, the House of Representatives voted 242-180 to prevent a pro-gun amendment from being offered by Representatives Doc Hastings (R-WA) and Rob Bishop (R-UT) — an amendment that would have fully repealed the National Parks Gun ban. Without the amendment, the underlying bill, HR 146, greatly expands NPS lands, thereby expanding the gun ban. A “no” vote is rated as a pro-gun vote and is listed as a “+”.
