\ufeff<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0 var iframe = document.getElementsByClassName(‘campaign_widgetv2’)[0]; Dear friend.<\/p>\n I have good news and bad news.<\/p>\n First, the bad news; and sadly, this is really bad news.<\/p>\n More gun control has been introduced into the General Assembly.<\/p>\n From so-called \u201cassault weapon\u201d and \u201chigh capacity\u201d magazine bans (HB 2\/SB 2), unconstitutional waiting periods (SB 55), bans on carrying in restaurants (SB 57) and even bans on carrying a firearm on a public sidewalk (HB 175)…<\/p>\n …the anti-gun agenda is on full display.<\/p>\n Concerningly, anti-gun HB 319 would remove nationally-recognized firearms instructors and curriculum from concealed handgun permit classes, leaving only government certified instructors and curriculum available to obtain a concealed handgun permit.<\/p>\n Such a move would drastically reduce the number of instructors available to teach concealed handgun permit classes and make obtaining a CHP much more difficult.<\/p>\n Ironically, the same people who support restricting your rights in the name of \u201cgun safety\u201d want to make actual gun safety classes harder to find.<\/p>\n In fact, as the session kicks off, it\u2019s likely even more tyrannical bills will be introduced. And the anti-gun Democrats have the partisan votes to pass all of it.<\/p>\n Now for the good news.<\/p>\n You can do something about it. Together we can defeat this horrid anti-gun onslaught.<\/p>\n First, begin by contacting your delegate and senator in opposition to this gun control. Then, attend Lobby Day<\/a> next week and bring a friend (or a dozen). GOA\u2019s Erich Pratt will be speaking in Richmond \u2013 discussing the importance of grassroots activism.<\/p>\n With your help, we will protect Second Amendment rights in the Old Dominion.<\/p>\n In liberty,<\/p>\n Jordan Stein
