Political Group Survey: the PVS survey question on gun control
Source: PVS Survey
Project Vote Smart inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Guns: Do you generally support gun-control legislation?'
PVS self-description: "The Political Courage Test provides voters with positions on key issues. Historically, candidates have failed to complete our test due to the advice they receive from their advisors and out of fear of negative attack ads."
Also see the Christian Coalition survey question on gun rights as a related survey question; the 2018 PVS survey question on gun control from a similar survey question; and the 2018 CC survey question on Second Amendment.
