Below is an email I received from the VCDL. Please contact your senators!
ACTION ITEMS BELOW.
South Dakota Senator John Thune's amendment to the defense authorization bill, which requires inter-state recognition of concealed carry licenses, is causing a furor among the antis.
Anti-gun activists with family links to Virginia Tech, arrogantly presuming to speak for the entire community by calling themselves “the Virginia Tech Families,” published a notice in the Richmond Times- Dispatch today asking Senators Warner and Webb to not support the amendment. Turns out that New York Mayor Bloomberg is behind that effort. Gee, what a surprise.
New York Senator Chuck Schumer must be really having an Excedrin headache about now. He has vowed to filibuster the amendment. Hmmm - he does have the ability to talk for a long time and say nothing, so that might be a real threat.
We need to make sure their anti-gun/anti-self-defense message is drowned out.

Here is the bill's full wording. The amendment, published here in full, would also allow someone with a non-resident permit to carry in any state which issues a permit or license:

ACTION ITEM:
If you haven't contacted Senators Webb and Warner to support the amendment, now is the time to do so. We need to drown out the self-defense haters:

How about that...out of 2802 votes so far, 95% are in favor of states honoring other state's CC permits. Yet, somehow the anti's still are allowed to steamroll their agenda's forward.

CF,
I like STEAMROLL, lets steamroll the anti's, it might last longer than asphalt 
. Seriously, we all need to continue tha letter writing, phone calling, VOTING and every other means we have to get the word out ALL the time. I do not agree with a thing our senator Robert Casey stands for, I also write him to let him know it quite frequently.

The part of the state that I live in is pretty pro-2nd amendment... I certainly try to do my part!

Measure failed to pass by two votes (58-39). And just whom do you suppose the Commie News Network quotes for the "against" voice, Bloomberg. He said, "We can't have all these guns, and it's reasonable to have each state make their own laws." So, what was that document that said something about rights not being infringed.... hmmm
I wonder what kind of glee-fest they'll be having on MS-DNC this afternoon.
Rant, rant....
