Assessments
DesJarlais promised to vote to protect Second Amendment rights. During his current federal House term, he voted Yea on House passage of H.R. 1041, the Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act, a bill explicitly framed around Second Amendment protections. Because the promised action was a vote and he cast the relevant vote in favor, this counts as delivered in the same term.
