Dear Friend,
America is a blessed nation of citizens who take pride in their civil rights and liberties. As a former civics teacher, I understand the value instilled in the Bill of Rights, and as a proud member of the National Rifle Association, I strongly support the Second Amendment. Be assured I will oppose any legislation that restricts the ability of law abiding citizens to own and carry a firearm. Congress should focus on legislation for those who break laws and not for those who abide by them. I will continue to work with my colleagues to ensure a citizen's right to bear arms is protected.
I did not come to Washington to participate in partisan politics, but instead to play a role in fixing the problems currently plaguing our nation. It is my belief that America has entered a new era, one that is hopefully a little less partisan, a little less fearful, and much more directed to meeting the needs of everyday Americans. My faith has taught me that great things are possible when we put aside our differences and work toward common goals we all share. I have faith in our country and its citizens, and I ask that you continue to keep a dialogue with me and my staff as we move forward together.
Thanks again for taking the time to contact me. If you would like to learn more about my positions on the issues or stay updated on important developments in Congress, please visit www.kissell.house.gov. My office is currently in the process of creating an E-Newsletter to keep you more informed of my work in Congress. Please check my website for more information. Remember, your views are important to me, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon.

Sincerely,
Larry Kissell
