    I just cross-referenced the list of co-sponsors with the list of the House Judiciary Committee: 9 of the 22 delegates on the committee co-sponsored this piece of trash. That's to close to half in my book!!!!

    We're not ignoring it. It's just right now the Senate is where we need to focus our efforts. They hear the bill in committee first.

    Guys, this is the basic format in which bills progress through the legislative process. Every bill has to have a hearing in the appropriate committee in the respective chamber in which it will have to ultimately be voted on.

    There's nothing unusual here.

    Now, there are exceptions to the process, such as when a bill is known to be DOA and there is thus no need for it to be heard in the opposite chamber.

    No surprise here Bills "cross filed" just hoped upon "first reader" in both Chambers at least one Pro Gun legislator would have added Admendments to the Bill weakening the Bills to be in effective. If the Admendments are not resolved by Sponsors and Senator or Delegate who added the Amendment then the Bill basically dies. Our elected Pro 2A friends are not using all the "tools" in the Legislative process to help us here, they know how the game played in the GA. Another concern for both Bills being heared by Committee so early plenty of time to resolve Admendments before mid April.

    Is there a committee date for this yet or are they going to wait for the outcome of the 6th?
