The Oscar-winning actor, who is from Uvalde, Texas, wrote an op-ed for The Austin American-Statesman.
"I believe that responsible, law-abiding Americans have a Second Amendment right, enshrined by our founders, to bear arms," McConaughey wrote."I also believe we have a cultural obligation to take steps toward slowing down the senseless killing of our children. The debate about gun control has delivered nothing but status quo. It’s time we talk about gun responsibility."
The actor said he believes all gun purchases should require a background check. He also believes an"assault rifle" should only be sold to people 21 years and older, unless they are in the military. He also called for a national waiting period on"assault rifles" and for Red Flag laws to become the"law of the land."
