The Governor has vetoed two bills, as we expected he would:

HB 382, Delegate Fowler, allows state-agency employees to have a loaded gun locked in their private vehicles while at work. This is the same thing that was successfully done for local government employees some years ago. This bill passed close to veto proof.

HB 1096, Delegate Webert, state-agency preemption, prevents state-agencies from regulating firearms or ammunition without express authority from the General Assembly. This would have undone the gun ban that the Governor created for state agencies back in November.

ACTION ITEM - LET’S GO FOR A VETO OVERRIDE! WE CAN DO IT IF GUN OWNERS WILL STAND AND FIGHT.

The General Assembly will meet on April 20th to attempt to override vetoes.

Those of you in DEMOCRAT districts - we especially need your help for the overrides.

I don't know if others know or not but these ACTION ITEMS do matter.

I contacted Philip Van Cleave regarding the SCOTUS Nomination prior to the recent supper meeting in Roanoke and shared my concerns and comments.

My question was "Are these comments truly read or just filed in the bit bucket with a canned reply?"

Well, apparently a "canned" reply is sent to everyone but the politicians aides will provide a count of those for and against the bills.

Philip Van Cleave usually provides a constructed page and with minimal effort you can submit your opinion. Please take a moment and reply.

Thank you.
