Ellsworth Will Not Become A Second Amendment Sanctuary
City officials have voted down an attempt to make Ellsworth a Second Amendment Sanctuary.
On Monday, residents met with Ellsworth city officials to show support for the second amendment. According to Fox Bangor, city council member Michelle Kaplan requested debate over whether the city should become a Second Amendment Sanctuary. Kaplan said, It would just mean that Ellsworth police would not go door to door confiscating weapons that the federal government deems as unlawful and that itself is actually protected by the commerce clause.” The resolution was voted down by a 6-1 vote.
