Rehberg Measure to Protect Second Amendment Rights for Vets Clears House of Representatives

10/11/11 WASHINGTON, D.C.

Montana's Congressman, Denny Rehberg, today praised the House for passing his Veterans Second Amendment Protection Act as a part of a larger piece of vets-related legislation.

Rehberg's bill, which was included in H.R.2349, protects veteran’s gun rights unless they are determined to be a danger to themselves or others by a judicial authority.

“This vote marks a significant legislative victory for America’s vets,” said Rehberg, a member of the Congressional Military Families Caucus. “I hope the Senate will quickly pass this bill so we can get this to the President as soon as possible for his signature. This issue is too important for political delays and partisan games.”

[This is long overdue, and in my humble opinion any Veteran's name on the NICS List that has not be properly Adjudicated through the Courts should be removed immediately, it isn't right that a Dr. in the VA Hospital should have the ability to step into a Judges position to say this or that person is mentally incompetent, they should be allowed to refer the case to a court and then if a Judge in that courtroom says the person is mentally incompetent, then & only then they should be added to the NICS List.]
