Betsy DeVos:
Let local schools decide about guns in school
On guns in school: Asked by Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) on whether she thought "guns have any place in or around schools," DeVos answered that the issue was "best left for locales and states to decide."
In January 2016, Trump pledged to end gun-free zones in schools and military bases, telling a crowd, "I will get rid of gun-free zones on schools -- you have to --
and on military bases on my first day. It gets signed my first day.
You know what a gun-free zone is to a sicko? That's bait." Asked whether she supported Trump's proposal to end gun-free zones, DeVos replied, "I will support what the president-elect does."

Gavin Clarkson:
No ban on assault weapons; defend 2nd amendment
Q: Do you favor a federal ban on the sale of assault-style weapons?A: No. "Assault-style" is a nebulous term. Leftists seem to think it's any gun that looks scary.
Americans have every right to own weapons to defend themselves, their families, and their property.
Q: Would you favor a repeal of the 2nd amendment?
A: No. The 2nd Amendment doesn't grant us the right to defend our persons, properties, and families. God did that by making us in His image. 2nd Amendment simply protects what
Justice Scalia called a "pre-political right," which is deeply ingrained in natural law. Self-defense is an inalienable right of human nature.

Yana Ludwig:
Control guns in the context of police reform
We also need to look seriously at police reform and the high rates of people of color shot every year by law enforcement, rarely with any consequences for the police. Any conversations we have about gun control
I believe need to happen within the context of police reform, and with respect for basic Second Amendment rights.
