We should make Tennessee a true Constitutional Carry state and oppose every effort by the federal government to restrict our gun rights.
He will make Tennessee a true constitutional carry state and oppose federal restrictions on gun rights.
Occurrences
Evidence
His current governor-campaign issues page still pledges to make Tennessee a true constitutional carry state and to oppose federal gun-rights restrictions.
On May 21, 2026, Rose voted Yea on House passage of H.R. 1041, the Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act.
Assessments
Rose has taken a concrete federal action aligned with the pledge by voting for H.R. 1041 on May 21, 2026, which supports the promise to oppose federal restrictions on gun rights during his current federal term. However, the broader promised outcome of making Tennessee a true constitutional carry state has not been shown as completed, and the live campaign pledge indicates that state-level component remains unresolved. This merits partial credit, not full delivery.
