Ad copy

When it comes to gun control, Seth believes in the Constitution he swore an oath to defend when he served. The 2nd Amendment isn't just about hunting. It's about freedom and the right to protect yourself and your family. More needs to be done to prevent gun violence, but not by trampling on the rights of law-abiding citizens. Stand with Seth in defending the right to keep and bear arms. *Note: AI was not used in the production of this content.* Follow @sethbodnarcampaign for more. #DeclareYourIndependence #MontanaFirst #MTSen #Montana #MontanaProud
