DATE:       May 27, 2009
TO:            USF & NRA Member and Friends
FROM:      Marion P. Hammer

                  NRA Past President

This morning, Governor Charlie Crist used his veto pen to veto the $6 Million raid on the Concealed Weapons and Firearms Licensing Trust Fund sweep put in the budget by the legislature.

Governor Crist deserves our profound appreciation for his veto.

The legislature intended to take $6 million from the Division of Licensing Concealed Weapons and Firearm Trust Fund that is intended, by law, to be used solely for administering the concealed weapons and firearms licensing program.  That would have been a DEFACTO TAX ON GUN OWNERS

Please Call, Fax, or Email Governor Charlie Crist and thank him for the VETO OF THE SECOND AMENDMENT TAX created by the intended sweep of $6 Million from the Division of Licensing Trust Fund.

Phone number: (850) 488-4441 or (850) 488-7146
Fax number:  (850) 487-0801

Send your email to the Governor at this address:

IN THE SUBJECT LINE PUT:

THANK YOU for your VETO of the CW Trust Fund Sweep

Please send your email today!!!!!
