Gabby and Mark Respond to Donald Trump’s Choice of Indiana Governor Mike Pence as His Running Mate

July 15, 2016

As gun owners, we cannot trust a reckless, unstable Donald Trump and a governor so firmly in the gun lobby’s grip to do the responsible thing in the face of our nation’s gun violence crisis – and that’s exactly what the Trump-Pence ticket represents. Donald Trump and Governor Pence share the gun lobby’s vision of anAmerica where everyone is armed, but no one is safe. From allowing guns in school parking lots to voting to make it easier for dangerous people to carry loaded, hidden guns, Mike Pence has a record of giving in to the gun lobby, and he’s not the kind of leader we need anywhere near the Oval Office. We need a president like Hillary Clinton: someone steady in the face of crisis with the courage to stand up to the gun lobby, the record to prove it, and a smart,responsible plan for preventing gun tragedies while respecting the rights of law-abiding gun owners like us.
