Mrs. Smith asked all of her students to write a letter to their Senator asking for stricter gun control laws to make public areas safer in their state. Senator Steinberg responded back that she was unable to introduce gun control laws to Congress because it will be in violation of the Constitution. Is the Senator's response accurate? Yes, according to the 2nd Amendment people have a right to bear arms (keep weapons).

Yes, as there have not been any Supreme Court rulings on the gun issue that would allow for stricter laws.

No, the Senator's response is not accurate as the students were not asking for the Second Amendment to be abolished.

No, the Senator's response is not accurate as the 11th Amendment clearly allows citizens to sue their state if they believe their safety is in jeopardy.
