Chipman’s radical positions on gun ownership undoubtedly threatened the outdoor heritage that South Dakotans have enjoyed for generations. It is important for President Biden to now nominate an individual who will respect the Second Amendment, reject burdensome federal regulations and work alongside our nation’s sportsmen.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:17:01Z |
