John Schroder on Gun Control

 

 


Will only do business with banks that support gun rights

The Bond Commission unanimously voted to give Wells Fargo the state's refinancing contract after concerns were raised last month about JPMorgan Chase & Co., the bank originally selected to handle the deal. Republicans on the Bond Commission are upset that JPMorgan refuses to do business with gun manufacturers who sell military-style weapons to consumers.

The vote highlights the extent to which the Bond Commission will go to shore up its credentials on gun rights. "I'm not selling our Second Amendment rights to corporate America," State Treasurer John Schroder, the Bond Commission chairman, said. Banks that seek to do business with the Bond Commission already have to affirm on a questionnaire that they do not infringe on the "constitutionally protected rights of the citizens of the State to lawfully keep and bear arms," before their applications are approved.
