NRA Stands Behind Rick Scott for Re-election

The National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) announced on Thursday it was backing Gov. Rick Scott for a second term, citing his strong record on the Second Amendment.

Rick Scott has an unmatched record of support for the Second Amendment in Florida, said Chris Cox, the NRA-PVFs chairman. Rick has signed more pro-gun bills into law in one term than any other governor in Florida history. Law-abiding gun owners in Florida have a true friend in Rick Scott.

We can continue to count on Rick Scott to stand up for our constitutional freedoms in Florida, Cox continued. On behalf of the NRAs 5 million members, I want to thank Rick for his steadfast support of the Second Amendment and urge all NRA members, gun owners and sportsmen in Florida, to vote Rick Scott for governor on Nov. 4."
