Response to Concerns About The Anti-Gun Bill from District office to James R. Jones

Scope and Contents

The text is a message from James R. Jones, a member of Congress, to Lawrence C. Perkins in response to Perkins' concerns about a recent vote on gun-related issues. Jones apologizes for the passing of S-2414, which became Public-Law 99-360, before he received Perkins' letter. He states that he has always been a supporter of the Constitutional right to bear arms and mentions his sponsorship of the McClure-Volkmer bill, which aimed to weaken gun control laws but was passed over. Jones assures Perkins that he will continue to fight for the rights outlined in the Constitution and asks to be kept informed of any concerns Perkins may have.
