Pam Bondi’s record on gun laws leaves second amendments groups unhappy

As Florida's attorney general, Bondi had laws restricting firearm access, leaving some worried about their gun rights

As Pam Bondi awaits Senate confirmation to be US attorney general, one part of Trump's coalition isn't happy about her nomination: second amendment activists.

Bondi, a longtime Trump ally, was attorney general of Florida when 17 high school students and staff members were killed in Parkland, Florida, in 2018. After the shooting, she banned gun sales to people younger than 21 and enacted a red flag law, allowing law enforcement to petition a judge to temporarily confiscate the guns of someone deemed to be a threat to themselves or someone else.
