“Texas Gun Rights is committed to identifying candidates who pledge an unwavering commitment to protecting, defending, and restoring gun rights in the state of Texas,” McNutt said. “We plan to make sure banning dangerous ‘red flag’ gun confiscation laws and pushing back against radical Biden gun control are a top priority this primary season and on into November.”
