The right to bear arms is one of the most fundamental rights of Americans. Despite the clarity of this right, Democrats continue in a relentless pursuit to dismantle the Second Amendment and punish law-abiding gun owners.\n\n\u201cToday\u2019s roundtable discussion was meaningful and productive, awareness and advocacy is where our mission to preserve the Second Amendment starts. I appreciate the work USCCA is doing to meet the growing demand for firearm safety and training. I promise I\u2019ll do all I can to bring commonsense measures that protect gun owners\u2019 right to bear arms across the finish line in Congress.\u201d\n\nBACKGROUND\n\nCongressman Fitzgerald is a cosponsor of H.R. 38, the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, legislation that would allow individuals to conceal and carry across state lines in jurisdictions that allow concealed carry without having to re-register.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:03:51Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://fitzgerald.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressmen-fitzgerald-jordan-join-us-concealed-carry-association-delta"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9247278794646263, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
