“Bride Of Brady” Passes Out Of Ways And Means Full Committee
HB 2853, the bill that will expand the failed Brady law passed out of the Ways and Means Committee tonight in a late session.
The following list shows the vote count. Those who voted “No” stepped up to support your rights.
Those who voted “Yes” voted to expand a system that has denied countless gun owners lawful purchases.
The battle now goes to the full House and Senate Floor. No matter what happens, we are committed to continuing the fight and thank you for your willingness to stand for liberty. Please have no doubts that your hard work had a powerful effect on those who voted no. Several legislators commented on the mail they received from you. Anti-gun militant, Vicki Walker, talked about having her e-mail box “lit up” by OFF members. The NRA’s “neutrality” on this bill was, of course, a setback, but the battle is not over.
Please don’t stop now.
