--- Quote ---WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Mike Johanns (R-Neb.) today, along with 50 of his Senate colleagues, wrote President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton expressing concerns about the United Nations’ (U.N.) Arms Trade Treaty. The senators said they would oppose ratification of the treaty if it restricts the rights of law-abiding American gun owners.

“As the treaty process continues, we strongly encourage your administration not only to uphold our country’s constitutional protections of civilian firearms ownership, but to ensure – if necessary, by breaking consensus at the July conference – that the treaty will explicitly recognize the legitimacy of lawful activities associated with firearms, including but not limited to the right of self-defense,” the senators wrote. “As members of the United States Senate, we will oppose the ratification of any Arms Trade Treaty that falls short of this standard.”
