Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton has made gun control one of her top campaign issues in recent months. And this week, her daughter informed supporters that that the former first lady will make putting an anti-firearm activist on the bench of the Supreme Court one of her first priorities if elected.

Chelsea Clinton made the remark during a campaign stop in Maryland.

"It matters to me that my mom also recognizes the role the Supreme Court has when it comes to gun control. With Justice Scalia on the bench, one of the few areas where the Court actually had an inconsistent record relates to gun control," she said.

Now that Scalia's gone, Clinton said gun control advocates could see better results with judicial attempts to dismantle the right to bear arms. But, she added, her mother is the only candidate running who has a rabid disdain for the 2nd Amendment.

"So if you listen to Moms Demand Action and the Brady Campaign and the major efforts pushing for smart, sensible and enforceable gun control across our country, disclosure, have endorsed my mom, they say they believe the next time the Court rules on gun control, it will make a definitive ruling," Clinton said.

"So it matters to me that my mom is the only person running for president who not only constantly makes that connection but also has a strong record on gun control and standing up to the [National Rifle Association]."
