Dr. Coburn Explains Hold on NICS bill

“When politicians create new ways to spend money they should be forced to do what every American family has to do and make choices between competing priorities. This bill authorizes more than $2 billion in new spending that is not paid for with reductions in other lower-priority areas of the budget. As Congress prepares to raise the debt limit once again, it is not too much to ask politicians to do the job they were elected to do and make choices. Veterans, or any other American, should not lose their Second Amendment rights if they have been unfairly tagged as having mental health concerns. The bill does not fund a process by which such individuals can regain their rights.”
