Legislative Session set to begin, time to write your elected employees!

[Worriedman]

With the new General Assembly about to begin, it is imperative that we get our legislators on record with regard to their opinions regarding the recent Bruen decision's effect on gun laws in Tennessee.

We have begun to see how it has worked in some State and Federal court cases, e.g. Peres-Gallan in the Federal Western District of Texas where US 922 (g) (8) was declared unconstitutional and the more recent New York Supreme Court ruling in G.W. v C.N. case there the New York Red Flag Laws were deemed unconstitutional.

Please, every person whos desires to see the "intent to go armed" clause of the TCA done away with, write and actual letter to your State Representatives and more especially to your Senators asking how they see the Bruen decision will affect their support for repealing TCA 39-17-1307 (a) (1).

Actual written letters will normally generate a written response.  If I can get an on paper answer to this very important question it will be very beneficial in the coming year.  I will catalogue those responses  to the benefit of the 2nd Amendment (and 14th Amendment) friendly constituents in Tennessee.

I would also be appropriate to write the Speakers of both chambers, as well as the governor, as each of us is their constituent, along with all members of the House civil and criminal justice sub and full committees and the Senate Judiciary committee once they are named for the year.

It will take a little bit of time, effort and a few dollars but it will be vastly beneficial to the effort.

News from the House tells me that it is more important then ever that we gear up and contact our Senators.

This can be a very good year, if we will but jump start the Senate.
