Arizona Sen. Kelly Pressured to Recuse from Chipman Confirmation Vote - Tennessee Star

Arizona Sen. Kelly Pressured to Recuse from Chipman Confirmation Vote - Tennessee Star: Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) is facing calls to recuse himself from the confirmation process of David Chipman, the controversial nominee to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). According to Breitbart, a proclamation was issued against Kelly in the Arizona House of Representatives over a conflict of interest. It was first introduced by Rep. Quang Nguyen (R-District 1). Kelly is married to former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, who was shot in during an assassination attempt while speaking to constituents at an event in Tuscon in 2011. Later, the pair founded Giffords, a gun control group. Chipman, a known gun-grabber, works as a Senior Policy Advisor at the nonprofit.
