Virginia: Anti-Gun Taxes Advance in Both Chambers - Contact Your Senator!
Dear [Lawmaker],
As a fellow Virginian and your constituent, I urge you to OPPOSE Senate Bill 763 when it arrives on the Senate floor. Senate Bill 763 imposes an 11% excise tax on the sale of all firearms and ammunition "by a dealer in firearms, firearms manufacturer, or ammunition vendor," and designates all funding from the tax go into a "Virginia Gun Violence Intervention and Prevention Fund." Such taxes are designed to price law-abiding citizens out of their right to self-defense. Tax increases on manufacturers level would inevitably be passed on through higher retail prices for firearms and ammunition, making them less affordable for responsible gun owners who rely on them for personal protection. This does nothing to address crime in our state, and only penalizes law-abiding Virginians. Again, I urge you to OPPOSE SB 763. Thank you for all that you do for the Commonwealth.
Sincerely,
______
