WASHINGTON—Rep. Mark Green was recognized by the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), the firearm industry trade association, for his commitment to the Second Amendment.
Rep. Green said, “It’s an honor to earn the Dean's List recognition from NSSF. The Biden-Harris administration takes the Second Amendment as a suggestion, and Americans are taking note. I will continue working to hold this administration accountable for its ruthless attacks on firearm owners, manufacturers, and small businesses. I appreciate NSSF’s continued hard work to protect shooting sports and the firearm industry.”
Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF’s Senior Vice President and General Counsel said, “NSSF is proud to especially recognize Representative Green as a member of the new NSSF Congressional Dean’s List for his exemplary leadership in supporting the firearm and ammunition industry and the nearly 400,000 hardworking Americans employed in the industry. Making the Dean’s List is a special recognition that Rep. Green has gone above and beyond to protect and preserve the Second Amendment rights of his constituents and the industry that makes the exercise of those rights possible. We applaud Rep. Green for his exemplary level of support.”
