Jake Bequette: All Americans are entitled to safely own firearms

Jake is a staunch defender of the Second Amendment and the Constitutional right of Americans to keep and bear arms. He is a gun owner himself and believes that Arkansans, and all Americans, are entitled to safely own firearms for sport and for protection, as our Founding Fathers intended. In Congress, Jake will be a 100% supporter of our 2nd amendment rights.
