Eli Crane Blasts ‘Unelected Bureaucrats’ Targeting Veterans’ Gun Rights

On Thursday, Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) blasted “unelected officials” who targeted military veterans' rights to use trustees to help them financially.

Crane said one of the hearings, which he described as “about whether unelected officials can strip veterans of their God-given rights when they need to control their assistance.” It was a club.

Veterans' gun rights have been under threat for decades. Initially, it was for people seeking psychological support for the struggles they faced after deployment, and it allowed third parties to help manage their finances.

Regarding mental health: In February 2016, during the Obama administration, Breitbart News reported that people who may require treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder fear that the diagnosis of PTSD will be used. Reported numerous combat veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan. Deny their gun rights under the Obama administration.

The combat vet, who is confined to a wheelchair, spoke anonymously to Breitbart News at the time and said, “I've been diagnosed with PTSD. What's being done to make sure my gun doesn't get taken away?” He said he lived with anxiety, questioning every trip to the doctor, fearing he was one visit away from having his gun rights erased.

This also became a serious concern for veterans who help balance their checkbooks and manage their finances due to the mental strain caused by combat. Veterans feared they faced a stark choice: have a fiduciary or have gun rights.

On July 25, 2019, Breitbart News reported that U.S. Reps. Phil Roe (R-TN) and Collin Peterson (D-MN) said the Department of Veterans Affairs was interfering with veterans' Second Amendment rights. He pointed out that a law had been introduced to prohibit the .

Now Rep. Crane is pushing HR 496 to completely block attacks on veterans' gun rights.

Crane, a former U.S. Navy Seal, believes that Democrats who support the bureaucratic status quo that allows bureaucrats to remove gun rights and do so to help reduce suicides among veterans, especially combat veterans. He said that he often claims that there are many. However, Crane rejects this idea, saying, “When it comes to suicide, a lot of these individuals, a lot of veterans… [their] The biggest problem is fear and trauma [they] thought [they] may lose [their] A life of fighting other people with guns. ”

He suggested that taking away guns now would heighten feelings of defenselessness, thereby heightening feelings of fear and helping fuel the very suicidal behavior that Democrats claim they are trying to stop.
