,s4 ,,con4 ,,res4 #dj  ,,in ,,the       
,,senate ,,of ,,the ,,united ,,states   
,june #bc1 #bjbj,mrs4 ,loeffler         
submitted the following concurrent      
resolution2 which was referred to the   
,committee on the ,judiciary            
,,concurrent ,,resolution  ,expressing  
the sense of ,congress that undue       
restrictions on the right of law-abiding
 gun owners to carry a firearm for      
self-defense outside of the home violate
 the ,second ,amendment to the          
,constitution of the ,united ,states4   
,whereas the ,second ,amendment to the  
,constitution of the ,united ,states    
7referred to in this preamble as the    
,second ,amendment7 states1 a well      
regulated ,militia1 being necessary to  
the security of a free ,state1 the right
 of the people to keep and bear ,arms1  
shall not be infringed42 ,whereas the   
right to bear ,arms1 in plain language1 
means the right to carry arms2 ,whereas1
 based on this plain language1 the      

,second ,amendment clearly provides     
individual citizens with a right to     
carry arms for the purpose of           
self-defense2 ,whereas the ,supreme     
,court of the ,united ,states has held  
that the ,second ,amendment is          
incorporated under the ,fourteenth      
,amendment to the ,constitution of the  
,united ,states and thereby protects the
 right of an individual under the       
,second ,amendment from infringement by 
,state and local governments2 ,whereas  
several ,states have enacted laws that  
unduly inhibit and infringe upon the    
rights of a law-abiding individual to   
carry a firearm outside of the home1    
unless the individual can demonstrate a 
special need to carry the firearm2      
,whereas these ,state laws are          
inconsistent with the plain meaning of  
the right to bear arms and the rights   
granted to individuals by the ,second   
,amendment2 and ,whereas established    
,federal processes and procedures       
regulating the right to purchase and    

possess a firearm are sufficient to     
provide for the interests of public     
safety3 ,now1 therefore1 be it ,that it 
is the sense of ,congress that undue    
restrictions on the right of law-abiding
 gun owners to carry a firearm for      
self-defense outside of the home-- 7#a7 
violate both-- 7,a7 the intent of the   
,founding ,fathers1 as expressed by     
,james ,madison in ,the ,federalist ,no4
 #df2 and  7,b7 the clear meaning of the
 ,second ,amendment to the ,constitution
 of the ,united ,states to keep and bear
 ,arms2 and  7#b7 are unlawful          
infringements of the rights granted by  
the ,second ,amendment to the           
,constitution of the ,united ,states4
