Lauren Boebert’s Glock Takes Shot At Anti-2nd Amendment Democrats
“Even though I now work in one of the most liberal cities in America, I refuse to give up my rights, especially my Second Amendment rights,”
She added that as a mother-of-four who’s just five-foot-tall and 100 pounds, “I choose to defend my family with all of the force the Constitution provides.”
Let me tell you why I WILL carry my Glock to Congress.
Government does NOT get to tell me or my constituents how we are allowed to keep our families safe.
I promise to always stand strong for our 2nd Amendment rights.https://t.co/E75tYpdN4B pic.twitter.com/qg7QGenrNo

The District of Columbia has strict gun-control laws.
After Boebert’s announcement, reporters asked Washington Police Chief Robert Contee about the new congresswoman’s plans.
Members of Congress are allowed to carry a gun on Capitol grounds, but Contee said he will inform Boebert that she’s subject to the same penalties as anyone else if she’s found with a concealed firearm elsewhere in the city.
A member of Congress is permitted to carry a gun at the Capitol, as long as it’s stored in the lawmaker’s office and unloaded while being transported.
