I will work with my Republican colleagues to overturn this constitutional injustice.
Work with Republican colleagues to overturn recent federal gun restrictions and protect Second Amendment rights.

Evidence
“This package achieves meaningful wins for the Gem State. It rolls back Biden-era regulations on farmers and livestock producers, promotes active land management to strengthen local economies and prevent wildfires, and defends Second Amendment rights by cutting funding for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).” The page also states the bill “reverses anti-Second Amendment overreach by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) by significantly reducing overall funding by $40 million.”
The release says the bill “Protects the 2nd Amendment rights of Veterans, preventing the VA from sending information to the FBI about Veterans without a judge’s consent.”
The page is a recent official office post dated May 22, 2026, but the accessible text in the crawl does not expose a specific gun-policy action in the captured lines.
Fulcher said Congress had an opportunity to make the ATF application process accessible and efficient and provide recourse for law-abiding gun owners seeking to exercise their 2nd Amendment rights. The bill would require ATF to process applications within 90 days, create an appeal process, and improve transparency and accountability.
Assessments
Evidence shows Fulcher took concrete pro-Second Amendment actions in office, including voting for a 2026 bill protecting veterans from VA firearm-reporting to the FBI without a judge's consent, supporting a 2026 appropriations package that cut ATF funding and was framed as reversing anti-Second Amendment overreach, and earlier introducing the ATF Transparency Act. But the promise was broader: to work with Republican colleagues to overturn recent federal gun restrictions. The record provided shows incremental protections and rollback efforts, not a clear, documented full overturning of recent federal gun restrictions overall. Because he made meaningful legislative efforts and achieved limited policy movement during the same term, partial credit fits better than delivered or never.
