The bill, H. 5070, is a resolution introduced in the South Carolina House of Representatives that emphasizes the state's commitment to upholding the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. It expresses the belief that the President, Congress, and federal officials must respect the rights of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms and should refrain from any actions that would unlawfully disarm them. The resolution also affirms the right of South Carolinians to carry and conceal firearms in accordance with state law and condemns any federal policies that may undermine these constitutional rights.
Additionally, the resolution highlights the importance of responsible firearm ownership for public safety and positions the Second Amendment as a critical safeguard against government tyranny. It calls for the presentation of this resolution to key federal officials, including the President and members of Congress, to communicate South Carolina's stance on preserving constitutional rights related to firearm ownership.
