We released our “2nd Amendment Grades for Texas’ 2024 Political Candidates” this week: https://ammo.com/2nd-amendment-grades/texas

As you know, voters in Texas who care about encouraging legal gun ownership in their state have a choice in 2024:

• We dug into the Second Amendment (2A) stance of federal and state-level candidates in Texas in battleground districts and high-profile races.
• Grades are due to a candidate’s previous 2A voting record, public statements on their constituents owning firearms, and the candidate’s willingness to focus on 2A issues.
• Grades have been assigned from A to F, just like in school.

Spoiler alert: Several of our grades surprised me as we often found an urban vs. rural divide – not a party-line divide – when it came to a candidate’s 2A stance.

To be honest, this was partially motivated by Everytown’s “Gun Sense” voter education initiative (i.e. propaganda campaign): https://gunsensevoter.org/candidates/. And the fact that the NRA seems to be slow in releasing their grades: https://www.nrapvf.org/grades/Texas/
