(JUST THE NEWS) -- Colorado Republican Congresswoman-elect Lauren Boebert plans to carry a gun with her while she works in the nation's capital, citing Washington, D.C.'s violent crime danger.
A restaurant owner and staunch defender of the Second Amendment, Boebert plans to protect herself by providing her own security.
Even in a year with widespread pandemic-related shutdowns in the city, homicides have risen roughly 20% over 2019, and the violent crime rate is 158% higher than the national average, Boebert said in an interview on "Just the News AM."
