Fairfax, Va. - The National Rifle Association’s Institute for Legislative Action released the following statement from NRA’s Kansas State Director, Travis Couture-Lovelady, on Gov. Laura Kelly’s veto of House Bill 2058.
“In a classic case of political flip-flopping, Gov. Kelly has bent to the will of radical gun control groups and denied tens of thousands of law-abiding gun owners the ability to defend themselves and their families when away from home. Her veto on HB 2058 demonstrates not only a reversal in position, but a callous indifference when it comes to the issue of self-defense. Hopefully the legislature will correct this grave injustice and override her veto in the coming session.”
