Congratulations, VCDL! We had a huge turnout tonight at the Newport News City Council meeting.

At the end of my comments, I asked everyone to stand if they agreed with me. About 80% of the room stood - we absolutely dominated.

But it was also your emails, phone calls, along with the turnout that MADE THE DIFFERENCE TONIGHT.

City Council voted 5 to 2 to remove the license-to-possess-a-firearm item from the City’s legislative agenda!

I was not expecting that good of a result going into this, but it shows the power that gun owners have when we work as a team!

And as a team we the put voltage into the 3rd-rail of politics - gun control. Touch that rail at your own political risk!

I’d like to thank all the VCDL members who took the time to show up tonight, including Board member John Fenter and EMs Ron Lilly, Doug Peterson, Mark Spruill, and Chip Marce, as well as all of you who took the time to email and/or call City Council!
