JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Senate Majority Leader Caleb Rowden said Thursday threats directed at him and his family were in regard to the "Second Amendment Preservation Act," which seeks to invalidate federal gun laws but has remained stalled in the upper chamber.
"It's not the first time it's happened," the Columbia Republican said. "It's part of the job. So it is what it is. We'll be fine."
Rowden told the Post-Dispatch on Thursday that police were stationed outside his house, and that the people threatening him via email appeared to be in favor of the bill.
