NRA-PVF Endorses Tim Griffin for U.S. House of Representatives in Arkansas' 2nd Congressional District
Tuesday, September 14, 2010
Fairfax, Va. - The National Rifle Association Political Victory
Fund (NRA-PVF) is endorsing Tim Griffin for election to the U.S.
House of Representatives for District 2 in Arkansas this
November.
"Tim Griffin has vowed to support gun owners and hunters in
Arkansas and is a champion of the Second Amendment," said Chris W.
Cox, chairman of NRA-PVF. "I have known and worked with Tim for
better than a decade. I can tell you from a personal and
professional stand-point that there is no better candidate to
protect and preserve your gun rights, and that's why the NRA-PVF is
endorsing Tim Griffin in Arkansas' 2nd Congressional
District."
Tim Griffin's commitment to preserving the Second Amendment has
earned him an "AQ" rating and the endorsement of NRA-PVF.
Griffin supports national right-to-carry reciprocity and efforts
to reform the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives. He also opposes reenacting the failed Clinton gun
and magazine ban and believes sportsmen should have access to
federally owned or administered lands for hunting, fishing,
trapping and recreational shooting.
"Tim Griffin will be a strong voice in fighting ongoing efforts
by anti-gun politicians to dismantle the Second Amendment," Cox
concluded. "We ask all Arkansas gun-owners and hunters to elect Tim
Griffin to the U.S. House on November 2nd."
Chris W. Cox is NRA's chief lobbyist. He also serves as chairman
of NRA-PVF. The National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund
