- In dueling speeches to a gathering of the National Rifle Association, former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis laid out their positions on the Second Amendment.
- Trump, the keynote speaker, said he would ask Congress to establish national reciprocity for concealed carry. “Just like your driver’s license or your marriage license, your Second Amendment must apply across state lines,” Trump said.
- Meanwhile, DeSantis, who has yet to formally announce his candidacy, noted that he called on his state legislature to pass a constitutional carry bill, which he signed into law. Additionally, he said Florida will restrict “ESG (environmental, social and governance issues) and woke capital” from threatening the financing of America’s Second Amendment rights.
