Standing Strong for the Second Amendment

For Patrick Kapenga, support for the Second Amendment isn’t about slogans — it’s about responsibility, readiness, and standing alongside the people who keep our communities safe. As a business owner rooted in West Michigan, Patrick has made it a priority to actively support local law enforcement. That includes training alongside SWAT teams and opening his facilities to first responders at no cost — because backing the men and women who protect us should be more than just words. “Public safety starts at the local level,” Kapenga said. “The people on the front lines deserve leaders who understand what they face and are willing to stand with them — not just during election season, but every day.” In Lansing, Patrick will bring that same approach: • Defending the Second Amendment as a fundamental constitutional right • Supporting law enforcement with real resources and respect, not political talking points • Protecting local control so communities — not bureaucrats — make decisions about their safety In District 89, where families, farmers, and small business owners value both freedom and security, Patrick believes these priorities go hand in hand. “Constitutional rights and safe communities are not in conflict,” Kapenga said. “They depend on each other.” Patrick’s campaign is focused on showing up, listening, and delivering real results for the people of Ottawa and Allegan counties — not chasing headlines or political trends. If you’re ready for a State Representative who will stand strong for your rights and support those who serve, Patrick is asking for your support.
