Session #98 · 1983–85

Speech #980117427

I think the Morton Grove action is demonstrative to all that if we are to maintain the right to keep and bear arms for the citizens in this country. it may take action on the part of the Congress. This amendment does not allow the Federal Government to interfere in State and local matters. but rather emphasizes the important rights and needs of our citizens. The amendment has been rewritten. and reflects some exclusions that Senator THURMOND thought were needed. Those exclusions restrict the right of gun possession for felons. illegal aliens. and so forth. I think this is a reasonable request and this proposal has been incorporated into the amendment. The distinguished chairman of the subcommittee.
