Bill Sali on Gun Control

Republican

Leader on 2nd Amendment issues

Bill has been a leader on 2nd Amendment issues which earned him the endorsement of the NRA in every election since 1992. Bill has held an A+ rating with the NRA since 1994. He is now endorsed in the race for Congress by Gun Owners of America. By Bill’s record I trust that he not only understands the 2nd Amendment, but he is committed to taking action to protect our right to keep and bear arms. Source: Donald E.
