Virginia Action Alert: Help Stop Pres. Obama’s Gun Control Plans, Support HB83

Virginia HB83 would prohibit state cooperation with the enforcement of any future federal laws, regulations, or executive orders relating to firearms, ammunition or firearms components, effectively nullifying any such acts in practice within the state. The bill must pass in the House Appropriations Committee before moving forward.

PLEASE TAKE THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS to support this important bill.

1. Call the House Appropriations Committee Chair, Chris Jones. Strongly, but respectfully urge him to move this important bill forward to a vote in his committee. A phone call has 10x the impact of an email.
Jones: (804) 698-1076

2. Call the rest of the committee members. Again, be strong, but respectful. Urge each of them to take action to move the bill forward and vote YES on HB83.
