Occurrences

I will work to protect our right to keep and bear arms, as guaranteed by the Second Amendment. We need to enforce the gun laws we have, not pass new ones that target the law-abiding rather than criminals.

Commits to defending gun rights and opposing additional gun restrictions on law-abiding gun owners.

Evidence

No matching text found for "Second Amendment"; no matching text found for "firearm"; no matching text found for "gun" on the official member page when searched during the lookback window.

Official member-page search returned no gun-rights or gun-policy references, so there is no concrete official sign in the lookback window that Knott delivered, blocked, or reversed the promise.

The committee page lists Brad Knott as a member and shows recent activity in the last 30 days on non-gun matters, including a 05/20/2026 hearing on "The Southern Poverty Law Center: Manufacturing Hate" and an 04/22/2026 markup of other bills.

Recent official committee activity involving Knott was unrelated to firearms, and this page does not provide a concrete gun-policy action within the lookback window.

Assessments

unresolved unknown

The available evidence does not show that Brad Knott delivered a concrete federal outcome protecting gun rights or blocking new gun laws aimed at law-abiding citizens. The Congress.gov/member-page search found no relevant firearm, gun, or Second Amendment activity, and the cited committee activity was unrelated to firearms. Because the promise concerns ongoing federal legislative conduct and the evidence does not establish either success or a serious failed attempt, the status remains unresolved rather than delivered, partial, or never.
