Ahead of Iowa Event, Jeb Announces Sportsmen's Coalition Advisory Committee
Ahead
of
his
events
in Iowa today, including an event at Brownell's Firearms
Manufacturing, and after President Obama's overreaching executive
orders on gun control
last week, today, Jeb is announcing the advisory committee for
his Sportsmen's Coalition.
This group will build
the coalition and help spread Jeb’s message about the importance of
hunting and fishing traditions and protecting the Second Amendment for
law-abiding citizens.
“Jeb
Bush
and
I
served together as governors of neighboring states with
proud hunting and fishing traditions. I've hunted and fished all my
life, and I know Jeb Bush
has stood up to the relentless, repeated attacks on our Second
Amendment rights. I have no doubt he will continue to lead that
fight
in the Oval Office. And that is why we must have a Second
Amendment
champion like Jeb Bush as President,” said Former
Alabama Governor Bob Riley.
