--- The Morning After.......
THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS!
As the smoke clears on California's two-year legislative session, that ended just after midnight - last night, one fact stands out among the rest. We would have been in big trouble if we had not functioned as an effective team.
During this session, our team defeated many bad bills (ex:
AB352 MICROSTAMPING &
SB357 AMMO SERIALIZATION), passed good bills (ex:
AB2111 CONSUMER PROTECTION &
SB1239 PRIVACY PROTECTION),
organized opposition to
regulatory changes, and took our effectiveness to the next level.
We did all of this while opposing and defeating
San
Francisco's Proposition H as well as ordinances designed to attack firearm
ownership, use, and sales, at
the local level.
Our team has grown into a political force comprised of
NRA Members' Councils,
Calguns.net subscribers
and readers, gun/hunting clubs, retail gun and sporting good stores, political
and legislative staff, gun owners from across the state,
NRA's California-based
legal team, and of course the
NRA-ILA. Although we
extend our heartfelt thanks and admiration to everyone that participated with
us, special mention should go to two of these groups.
The subscribers and readers of
Calguns.net played a valuable role as active team-members in the support and
defense of the Second Amendment. Your support of
the NRA and especially the NRA
Members' Council Program has been a great help and we look forward to continuing
to build on our effective working relationship.
If it were not for the NRA-ILA
,and the support from Executive Director
Chris Cox
and his staff, our efforts would have not enjoyed the level of success we
achieved. ILA provided support, guidance, and direction during some of the
most critical moments of this past session.
THIS FIGHT IS NOT OVER We will all soon be contacting the Governor's Office asking him to take action on some of the legislation that did make it to his desk. The NRA Members' Councils of California are asking that you continue to work with us throughout this final stage of the process. Further information regarding this topic will come in the near future. Stay tuned to CalNRA.com so you will know when we ask you to take action. WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW
