We’ll get straight to the point, friend. Our Republican opponent is dangerous and poses a real threat to the livelihood of the folks in our community. The National Rifle Association (NRA) have been STRONG supporters of his campaign since he first ran for Congress – and we expect them to double down on their support this year.
In fact, Pete Stauber has an A rating from the NRA. He’s accepted well over $100,000 from the gun lobby. And the NRA’s Super PAC even ran ads for Stauber in previous elections!
We can agree that our second amendment protects our fundamental freedoms. But we can *also* agree that weapons of war, like the AR-15, have NO PLACE on the streets of our great nation.
Jen Schultz knows this – and it’s exactly why she received the Gun Sense Candidate Distinction from Moms Demand Action. Jen will work hard in Congress to fight this epidemic with common sense legislation.
But our opponent Pete Stauber has been bought by Washington lobbyists, including the NRA, in order to keep his white-knuckle grip on status and power in DC.
Here’s the worst part of Stauber’s behavior on this important issue: His campaign recently removed his NRA endorsement page from their website. With so many tragic cases of gun violence plaguing our nation, he must be feeling some heat about his unwillingness to be part of a solution.
