Senator Begich responded to me...
Thank you for contacting my office regarding the various proposals in the 111[size=th][/size] Congress regarding the 2[size=nd][/size] Amendment.
I am a strong supporter of a person's right to bear arms. I am proud to be a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association (NRA) and of the "A" rating I received from the NRA during my recent campaign for the U.S. Senate.
I will fight any proposal which infringes on law-abiding citizens' right to keep and bear arms. In an effort to secure the rights of individuals to lawfully carry concealed firearms across state lines, I recently became the only Democrat to co-sponsor the Respecting States Rights and Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act. This legislation allows an individual to lawfully carry a concealed firearm across state lines if they have a valid permit or, if under their state of residence, they are allowed to do so.
The Second Amendment is of utmost importance to Alaskans, and this is just one step in my ongoing commitment to protect our right to bear arms. Thank you again for contacting me on this important issue.
