legislative vote. |
Word is Spreading on Secret Vote
to Kill HB 76 S1
(Alert for 4/6/13): One of UT Gun
Rights' objectives is to assist gun rights activists and
organizations in being as politically effective as possible.
We are encouraged by reports of
individuals who have called, emailed, and faxed
HB 76 S1 (Carry
Unloaded Firearms Concealed) sponsor,
representative John Mathis, to invite him to publicly reveal
the legislature's upcoming vote to override governor Herbert's
veto.
Other gun-friendly organizations are
also alerting their contacts regarding the ongoing
political theater and gamesmanship surrounding HB 76 S1.
Here are a few examples:
Utah Gun Owners (utgo.org)

Appropriate Action
We'll soon
learn whether HB 76 S1 was a real effort, or part of
the ongoing con. |
Contact
other gun-rights-friendly groups
and encourage them to share the essence of this information as
well — in whatever form they desire. Every gun owner
should understand that:
1) The legislature will soon take a SECRET vote on whether to
override governor Herbert's veto of HB 76 S1.
2) Only HB 76 S1 sponsor, representative John Mathis (phone:
435-789-7316 and email: jmathis@le.utah.gov), can request the
vote results and thereafter reveal to the public where each
legislator REALLY stands on HB 76 S1.
3) If this vote is kept from the public, then 2013 will be
another extremely successful year for legislators who avoid
political accountability.
