Congressman Barrow makes statement on announced gun control policies

Posted: Updated:
Washington, D.C. (WFXG) -

U.S. Congressman John Barrow (GA-12) released the following statement on the President's proposals for gun control policy.

"I support the President's call for stronger enforcement of existing gun crime laws, because that's been the real problem.   But I strongly disagree with proposals that would deny law abiding citizens their Second Amendment rights, and I'm disappointed he did not propose increased security measures for our schools. We need to find practical solutions to gun violence that are consistent with the Second Amendment, rather than having another political debate in Washington that divides Americans."
