Simply seeking treatment or counseling for any problem you may have in your life (and everyone has some), shouldn't prevent you from exercising your constitutional right to bear arms. This act prevents the system from being abused to discriminate against people who have sought therapy.

Aye

Quote from: Vote Explanation
I support gun control, but nobody should be banned from owning a gun solely because they once sought mental health treatment.

With a majority of representatives voting to pass this bill, the vote will close in 24 hours and any Representative who wishes to change his or her vote must do so during that interval.
