Submitted by United States Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana
WASHINGTON (September 26, 2024) – U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. (R-LA) released a statement after being named to the National Shooting Sports Foundation’s “Dean’s List”. Cassidy is one of only 8 senators to be placed on the “Dean’s List”, which recognizes lawmakers who have gone above and beyond the A+ rating to protect Second Amendment rights.
“I am proud to receive this recognition and look forward to continuing my efforts in Congress to defend Americans’ Constitutional rights against an ever-encroaching liberal agenda,” said Dr. Cassidy. “Law-abiding citizens should never be punished for exercising their Second Amendment rights.”
“NSSF is proud to especially recognize Senator Cassidy as a member of the new NSSF Congressional Dean’s List for his exemplary leadership in supporting the firearm and ammunition industry and the nearly 400,000 hardworking Americans employed in the industry. Making the Dean’s List is special recognition that Senator Cassidy has gone above and beyond to protect and preserve the Second Amendment rights of his constituents and the industry that makes the exercise of those rights possible. We applaud Senator Cassidy for his exemplary level of support,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President for Government & Public Affairs and General Counsel.
