WASHINGTON – The National Rifle Association has given Chautauqua County’s representative in Congress a positive score for his support of the Second Amendment.
The NRA released its scores for all candidates running for election in 2016, including candidates running for the 23rd Congressional District.
Congressman Tom Reed (R-Corning) recently received an ‘A’ rating from the NRA, which the organization says grades candidates based on their commitment to protect the Second Amendment and constitutional freedoms.
Reed received an ‘A’ while his opponent, Lakewood area Democrat and Naval Officer John Plumb received a question mark, which the NRA says is given to candidates who refuse to answer the NRA Candidate Questionnaire.
Deb Meeker says
The NRA has purchased Tom Reed.
John Plumb won’t be purchased.
However, Plumb has made his opinions clear:

Marcia says
I will vote for the person who got an F. We need someone who is not in the pockets of the NRA.
Marcia says
And how is it a man in the military gets an F? Again, being bought and paid for is Tom’s MO.
