Republicans push CDC to reinstate defensive gun use data after gun control activists had it removed from site
Fox News
Republican lawmakers are pressing the CDC to reinstate data on defensive gun use after removing it from their website. Gun control activists had argued the data was wrong.
"Public trust in the CDC is already at an all-time low. Now, we find out the supposed ‘non-partisan agency’ is removing information that gun control activists don’t like. The CDC’s own study showed that Americans have relied on their own guns for self-defense upwards of 2.5 million times in a year. Congress needs to act and put guardrails in place to protect from this behavior," Pfluger told Fox News Digital in a statement.

"The CDC must immediately end their blatant politicization of the facts in pursuit of the Far Left anti-gun agenda," Stefanik said in another statement to Fox. "The Biden Administration is shamefully lying to the American people and hiding the facts of how law-abiding citizens use their Constitutionally-protected Second Amendment rights to keep our families and communities safe."
