Urges Congress to continue working to remove remaining constraints and treaties that seek to limit Americans' Second Amendment rights
INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana - U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, today issued the following statement applauding President Trump for announcing the removal of the United States from the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT):
"I applaud President Trump for his announcement today finally and fully removing the United States from the Arms Trade Treaty.
