Stage | Proposed |
Comment Period | Ended on 4/16/2010 |
The Virginia Department of Forestry is currently accepting public comment on the proposed amendment to Virginia State Forest Regulation 4VAC10-30-170, which would allow concealed carry permit holders the ability to carry a concealed handgun for self-defense in Virginia's state forests. Public comments will be accepted by the Virginia Department of Forestry until Friday, April 16. I write to you today, respectfully urging the Virginia Department of Forestry to amend the Administrative Code and to support the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Virginians.
