My rep sounds like he's on board regardless:
"Thank you very much for your quick response. These days, anyone can claim to be a constituent, whether they live in our district, or our state, or our country.
Thank you also for sharing your concerns over the multiple pieces of legislation designed to reduce gun violence.
Thank you further for your years of service in our armed services, defending the Constitution, with its delineated rights for both individuals and for our government, including the government's right and responsibility to enact legislation our elected officials deem beneficial to our society. I and my colleagues take this responsibility very seriously, and we appreciate and value input from our constituents.
Again, thank you for reaching out."
