Supervisors approve second amendment sanctuary resolution

The Madera County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution declaring Madera County a Second Amendment Sanctuary County with a 4-0 vote and one abstention.

The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution protects the right of the people to keep and bear arms. Across the nation, counties have adopted “Second Amendment Sanctuary” resolutions to reaffirm their commitment to this fundamental right.

Tuesday’s resolution declares Madera County a Second Amendment Sanctuary, symbolizing the County’s support for the constitutional rights of lawful gun owners and aligning Madera with other counties throughout California and the nation that have taken similar action.
