Wednesday, September 29, 2010
Fairfax, Va.-The National Rifle Association Political Victory
Fund (NRA-PVF) is endorsing Rep. David Cheatham (D-69) for
re-election to the Indiana House of Representatives this
November.
"David Cheatham has earned an A+ rating and endorsement by
standing up for our Second Amendment rights and hunting heritage,"
said Chris W. Cox, chairman of NRA-PVF. "Dave is a loyal
friend of Hoosier gun owners and NRA appreciates his pro-gun
leadership in the Indiana House."
Throughout his tenure in the Indiana House of Representatives,
Dave Cheatham has consistently supported our right to keep and bear
arms, including: introducing Emergency Powers legislation to
protect Hoosiers against gun confiscations during states of
emergency; supporting Indiana's Emergency Powers and Parking Lot
laws; voting for privacy protections for Indiana concealed firearm
permit holders; and signing a pro-gun "friend of the court" brief
in McDonald v. Chicago, supporting the position that the
Second Amendment guarantees a fundamental right that protects all
Americans.
"Dave Cheatham will continue to be a strong pro-gun voice in the
Indiana House of Representatives," Cox concluded. "We ask all
Hoosier gun-owners and hunters in the 69th House
District to re-elect Dave Cheatham on November 2."
