Gov Palin Signs 5 Resolutions Protecting Gun Ownership Rights From Feds
Saturday, July 11, 2009
Governor Palin has signed House Bill 201 into law. The bill, sponsored by Representative Craig Johnson, changes the expiration date of a concealed handgun permit from five years from the date of issue to the person's birthday. “The right to own guns & use them responsibly is something I and many other Alaskans cherish,” Governor Palin said. “We have to be vigilant to protect the rights of individual Alaskans to own & use guns. I appreciate the work of our legislature in standing up for the Constitution.”
The Governor also signed 4 resolutions. HJR 17, sponsored by Representative John Harris, urges Congress not to pass HR 45. The federal legislation would put burdensome licensing & registration controls on individual gun owners.
SJR 10, sponsored by Senator Joe Thomas, urges Congress to pass S 371. The legislation would ensure that citizens of each state who are licensed or authorized by their home state to carry a concealed weapon, could do so in another state as long as they comply with the laws of that state. Currently, states offer this right of reciprocity through individual agreements that can vary from state to state.
HJR 27, sponsored by Representative Mike Kelly, reasserts states’ rights. The resolution reminds the federal government that the 10th Amendment limits the scope of federal powers to those specifically granted by the Constitution of the United States & no more.
SJR 3 is a resolution sponsored by Senator Gene Therriault. The resolution expresses support to Congress for repealing the ban on carrying a firearm on National Park Service lands. Congress did so in May, & the repeal becomes effective February 2010.

Remember the "IKE" Jackets, that's what she needs. She fits the part with the Troops, she's one of them. They feel comfortable with her.
What she did for Gun Laws in Alaska is what all states should do. Just cut the Feds out of the loop.

A bit off topic. There is great post on Tammy Bruce's cite regarding Sarah, and her desire to establish a strong Conservative Coalition.
I for one feel that there are a lot of things going on, "under the radar", in the Palin Camp.
She has a history of being a determined woman, who sets goals and works toward accomplishing them.
When she haas all the ducks in a row, she is going to come out shooting from the hip, and then watch the Libs Squirm. It's going to happen and it will be exciting to watch.

Sarah believes in the Second Amendment. In fact, she has proven without a doubt to believe in the entire Constitution. I hope she has aims for higher office. She is one of the very few politicians I can believe in.

they stand but it is for the same things
we all stand for.
