CARSON CITY – U.S. Representative Mark Amodei (NV-02) today announced an A+ rating from The Firearm Industry Trade Association (NSSF), which recently released its 2022 Report Card.
“Congressman Amodei is a true friend and ally of the firearm industry and Nevadans when it comes to protecting Second Amendment rights. His leadership on the issues of halting discrimination by ‘woke’ corporate banks against the firearm industry is critical to ensuring firearm businesses are able to access financial services based on credit worthiness. Likewise, his push to hold criminals accountable for burglary and robbery of firearm retailers is much needed at a time when the nation is suffering from rising crime rates. Congressman Amodei’s leadership on legislation for nonprofit organizations to compete for Department of Justice grants to distribute firearm locking devices demonstrates his commitment to safe and responsible firearm ownership, as does his support for legislation to allow lawful concealed carry permit holders to exercise their Second Amendment rights across state lines. Our industry is grateful to Representative Amodei for his commitment to protecting the Second Amendment rights of Nevadans and all Americans and prioritizing firearm safety above politics,” said Lawrence G. Keane, Senior Vice President and General Counsel, NSSF, The Firearm Industry Trade Association.
“At a time of continued assault on the Second Amendment by this Administration and Democrats in Congress, I have continued to prioritize protecting the right to keep and bear arms for law-abiding Nevadans. The A+ grade from The Firearm Industry Trade Association is an honor, and I stand firm in my commitment to continuing to defend these rights against partisan political agendas,” said Congressman Mark Amodei.
The 2022 grade was based on seven roll call votes, cosponsorship of several bills NSSF supports, and non-cosponsorship of several bills that NSSF opposes, as well as leadership on industry-related issues, public statements, work on a committee, floor statements, letters led and signed supporting a key issue, etc., during the 117th Congress.
