Senate passes Kennedy amendment protecting veterans' Second Amendment rights

The Senate voted 53 to 45 Wednesday in approval of the amendment.

"Veterans who sacrificed to defend our Constitution shouldn’t see their own rights rest on the judgment of unelected bureaucrats—but right now, they do," Kennedy told Fox News Digital on Wednesday.

"My amendment would prevent government workers from unduly stripping veterans of their right to bear arms.

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
