Staunch supporter of Second Amendment Rights
As a life-long gun owner and a member of the NRA, I am a staunch supporter of Second Amendment Rights. I believe that the U.S Constitution was crafted and intended to protect and preserve the individual right to bear arms. In Congress
I will serve as a strong and vocal defender of the Second Amendment and oppose legislation that seeks to undermine or infringe upon this crucially important constitutional right.

National cross-state standard for concealed carry.
Renacci co-sponsored H.R.197&S.845
Establishes a national standard for the carrying of concealed firearms (other than a machinegun or destructive device) by non-residents. Authorizes a person who has a valid permit to carry a concealed firearm in one state and who is not prohibited from carrying a firearm under federal law to carry a concealed firearm in another state:
-
Notwithstanding any law of any State, a person who is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing a firearm and is carrying a valid license to carry a concealed firearm may carry in another State a concealed firearm.
- If such other State issues licenses to carry concealed firearms, the person may carry a concealed firearm in the State under the same restrictions which apply in that State.
- If such other State does not issue licenses to carry concealed firearms, the person may not carry a concealed firearm in a police station, in a courthouse, at a meeting of a governing body, in a school, at an athletic event, in an establishment licensed to dispense alcoholic beverages, or inside an airport, except to the extent expressly permitted by State law.
