[Peninsula-Patriots] Fwd: Action Needed

From Dave Davis, Mathews Republican Committee Chairman:
 

Folks,
 
As I said, protect ourselves, our locality and our state.  Here is your opportunity to really do something.  A couple of phone calls is all that is needed.
 
Bob Marshall and Dick Black have introduced HB 2340.  A synopsis and legislative progress is listed below. It does not go as far as I would like but it is a start.
 
The bill has been assigned to the Militia, Police and Public Safety subcommittee.  Call Marshall's office in Richmond and ask his aide what you can do to help get this bill out of committee.  The aide may want you to call a member or two of the subcommittee and ask for their support.  Marshall's Richmond office number is 804 698 1013
 
Get busy and make that call. 
 
Dave
