Former RINO Congressman Will Hurd is Pushing for Gun Control

The voters in Texas’ 23rd congressional district caught a big break when former Congressman Will Hurd left office in 2021. In his time in office (2015-2021), Hurd was one of the squishiest Republicans in Congress as evidenced by his opposition to former President Donald Trump’s border wall. 

Now, he’s giving voters in Texas’ 23rd more of a reason to be glad that he’s out of office after penning a piece on June 6, 2022 at The New York Times calling for civilian disarmament. Hurd specifically advocated for red flag gun confiscation orders, universal background checks, and raising the minimum age to purchase most rifles to 21. 

The former Congressman’s demands for gun control came after the Robb Elementary massacre in Uvalde, Texas on May 24. Hurd used to represent Uvalde when he was in office.
