The city of Soddy-Daisy, Tennessee, is among a growing number of municipalities and counties across the nation to pass a resolution declaring itself a “Second Amendment sanctuary.”
“It’s a lengthy exposition of law and the right to bear arms,” said City Attorney Sam Elliott of the city’s resolution, which he drafted at the request of Vice Mayor Robert Cothran.
The resolution passed unanimously at the board of commissioners’ March 5 meeting.
Elliott said that the resolution is not a change in law.
“It lets the world know where you [as a city] stand on this important issue,” he said.
