Jean Carnahan on Gun Control


Advocated for gun control with sportsmen’s rights

Jean Carnahan made speeches several days a week on her husband’s Senate campaign trail in which she advocated for gun control. Ashcroft is a favorite of the National Rifle Association and campaigned for a ballot issue in Missouri last year that would have allowed people to carry concealed weapons. Mel Carnahan had opposed the measure. Responding to a written questionnaire last week from The Associated Press, Jean Carnahan said she opposed anything that interfered with the rights of sportsmen.
