House Democrats apparently retaliated yesterday by killing one of his bills in the Firearms Public Safety Committee. The bill had passed the State Senate 40-0.
If you haven't already, please let Senator Petersen know you appreciate his vote. He is one of the rare Democrats in the General Assembly that has some knowledge of firearms. We don't agree with him all of the time but there are just some bridges that go to far for him on the subject. Petersen (along with Deeds and Edwards) also voted in 2010 to repeal the ban on carrying firearms in restaurants that serve alcohol .People in the room — including gun control advocates who liked the bill — believe Democrats killed it because Petersen voted against the assault weapons bill yesterday https://t.co/jm9L9aoZD2— Amy Friedenberger (@AJFriedenberger) February 18, 2020
Hat tip to Cam Edwards.
