Castle Doctrine Stonewalling in Committee
(Printable {PDF} version here) |
House Judiciary I Chair waiting for
"direction
from her leadership"
before proceeding
SB 928, "The Castle Doctrine," is now languishing in
the House Judiciary I Committee.
Committee chair, Rep. Deborah K. Ross (GRNC 0 Star,
Wake) indicated to GRNC legislative representatives
that she considers your input "of little value," and
was waiting for direction from "her leadership"
before scheduling.
So to borrow a line out of a classic sci-fi movie,
"take me to your leader." Actually we should thank
Rep. Ross for letting us know to whom she wishes to
pass the buck. It is time to let Speaker Joe Hackney
know that he needs to direct Ross to schedule SB 928
for a hearing; since she doesn't seem to know if she
should without his "leadership."
Act now. We can see the goal line, time to push this
one on in for a touchdown.
IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED
* Contact Speaker of the NC House, Joe Hackney.

Dear Speaker Hackney:
Rep. Deborah Ross, chair of the House Judiciary I
Committee, is waiting to hear from leadership before
deciding on scheduling SB 928, "The Castle Doctrine"
for a committee hearing. I urge you to direct her to
do so and to give it a fair and honest hearing. It is
too important that this worthy bill that will protect
our citizens from dangerous criminals and abuses of
the legal system after a case of self defense be
passed into law.
The Castle Doctrine is an important concept that has
proven effective in the protection of citizens in the
number of states that have already implemented it. It
is vital that you throw your influence behind the
interests of the honest citizens of this state and
allow them to protect themselves from criminals.
I trust that you wish to protect the lives and
interests of the law abiding voters of North Carolina
rather than enable the criminal element. Provide
leadership in supporting SB 928. I will be following
your actions on this bill through Grass Roots North
Carolina.
Sincerely,
A Concerned North Carolina Voter
