I support the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms, and I respect Maine’s longstanding tradition of responsible gun ownership and use. I also support the current law requiring background checks on firearms purchases from licensed dealers.

Friday, April 30th, 2010Background Checks on the Purchase of Guns & Firearms
Monday, March 15th, 2010“I support the current law requiring background checks on firearms purchases from licensed dealers and would support extending background checks to private sales (except between family members) and sales at gun shows if this could be accomplished in ways that don’t add additional costs or burdens on sellers and buyers. For example, there might be a toll-free number that sellers could call to get verification immediately over the phone.”
