Again, the MORE FOLKS THAT SHOW UP AND TELL LAWMAKERS WE WANT OPEN CARRY ADDED TO THE BILL, THE BETTER CHANCE WE'LL HAVE AT GETTING IT
IF YOU SIT ON SIDELINES AND DON'T GET INTO THE GAME, YOU'LL NEVER KNOW IF YOU WIN OR LOSE.
SO GET IN THE GAME!
I NEED YOU AT THE CAPITOL ON FEBRUARY 20 AT 3PM AND ON FEBRUARY 21 AT 8AM TO FIGHT FOR A REAL CONSTITUTIONAL CARRY BILL!
Senate Criminal Justice Committee Feb. 20 Agenda
The Senate's Criminal Justice Committee is scheduled to hear SB 150 on February 20, 2023 at 3PM at the State Capitol. SB 150 is Senate version of the incomplete Constitutional Carry bill that was foisted upon us by RINOs. Why is SB 150 also incomplete? Simple, the bill doesn't have Open Carry!

Gun Owners of America had a great turnout during the last Committee hearing in the House. Florida's gun owners were loud and proud in demanding Open Carry be added to the House version of the bill, HB 543.
Let's Rally for REAL Constitutional Carry!
Well, I need you to be even louder this go around!
I need you to be at the Capitol and speak to the Committees and tell them that you want Open Carry as part of this bill.

I hope see you there. Remember, our national motto is "e pluribus unum," which is Latin for "out of many, one." Working together, speaking loudly with ONE voice, we can get a real Constitutional Carry bill with Open Carry as part of it passed.
Again, YOU MUST REGISTER BEFORE APPEARING IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK!
