Crossover Day is here in Virginia, where the delegates and senators transfer their respective passed legislations to the other chamber for consideration.
What happened to the Convention of States resolutions in Virginia: HJ 457 and SJ 235?
If you check the previous links, you will see that the legislators basically took action to not take action, leading to the resolutions not passing in either chamber.
Why? Opposition scare tactics originated by George Soros spread seeds of fear throughout the General Assembly.
Meanwhile, there are 31 trillion reasons why Virginia legislators should have voted Yes on Convention of States.
Instead, opposition groups in Virginia spread lies, especially about the 2nd Amendment.
Contrast the opposition groups with our long list of endorsers at Convention of States.
For example, part of our Legal Board of Reference is Charles J. Cooper, who is a founding member and chairman of Cooper & Kirk, PLLC.
A member of the Reagan Administration, Mr. Cooper has argued before the Supreme Court, and he spent much of his career defending constitutional rights as a top lawyer for the National Rifle Association.
Long advocating a constitutional amendment to solve the real threat to the 2nd Amendment, Cooper explained the truth to a COS crowd of volunteers in 2019.
That audience represents a small portion of the grassroots army that COS is building in each state to preserve liberty.
This COS grassroots army will be known by future generations for endeavoring to preserve liberty.
And it is a COS army that will make the difference.
Would you like to leave a legacy like this to your children and grandchildren? Here's how:
For Virginia to win the fight we need more boots on the ground. Especially, we need more District Captains (apply here) to recruit, welcome, and educate other volunteers in their local area.
Then the District Captain can inform the in-district volunteers of when to be in attendance and have their voices heard at committee hearings and floor votes.
Since it is election year in Virginia, we'll be asking each candidate in Virginia to complete a survey on where each of them stands regarding Convention of States. Stay tuned for that project.
