Dear GCO Member,
There are only two more legislative days left in this year's session. We have this coming Tuesday's session, a non legisative day on Wednesday followed by sine die on Thursday, March 20. We have very little time left to secure a good gun bill this year and need your help.
It is imperative EVERY GCO MEMBER contact their officials, especially Lt. Governor, Casey Cagle. You can start contacting him over the weekend via email and FAX and of course leave voice mails on his office phone. Please contact him no later than Monday morning if possible. The message is simple: (Feel free to change the below message, but please make the points stated in same.)
"I am a member of GeorgiaCarry.Org and I want HB60 passed as it was amended and passed out of the House, especially the private property rights portion. There is no reason for the State of Georgia to continue to deny my God given constitutionally enumerated rights to self-protection. It is past time for the Senate to pass a good gun bill that allows law-abiding citizens such as myself to protect my family and myself wherever the need might arise. Please pass HB60 as it was amended and passed by the House."

We also need you to continue to contact the Governor Nathan Deal, President Pro Tempore David Shafer and your Senator. We need you to call, write, FAX and email the above people if at all possible. We would like to see everyone's email box and voice mail full if they are not already full. We need to send the message stated above.
It is imperative that you let these people know that you want HB60 passed as it was amended and passed the House. Be short and to the point in all communications with your senator. As stated in the past and we continue to state, please show your elected officials respect when contacting them in any manner. Threats of never voting for them get you nowhere very quickly and hurt, rather than help our cause.
