SECOND AMENDMENT (2A) SANCTUARY STATE

****URGENT ACTION NEEDED****
 
WHAT: Utah Legislators have proposed a statute and resolution to make Utah a Second Amendment (2A) Sanctuary State; however, Governor Cox has not committed to put this on the agenda for the upcoming Special Session. Many states have already passed 2A Sanctuary Status or are in the process; Utah should be a leader in this movement!
 
  • The Federal government cannot compel states to enforce Federal laws. Printz v. United States (1997).
  • Heller and McDonald reenforce the individual and state 2nd Amendment right.
  • The second amendment doesn’t create a right – it protects an existing and unalienable right.

ACTION NEEDED: Contact Governor Cox TODAY and ask him to put a 2A Sanctuary Bill on the Agenda for the Special Session. Help us flood the governor’s phone and email with these requests so that he gets a clear message from all of us!

HOW: Call AND Email Governor Cox:

We request that you are respectful and courteous in your messaging. We encourage you to use your own words, but you may also use the example below as a guide / template.

Subject Line: Please place a 2A Sanctuary Bill on the Special Session Agenda

Body: Dear Governor Cox:

I am respectfully requesting that you put a 2A Sanctuary Bill on the agenda for the upcoming Special Session. The 2A protects all other civil rights. As you may know, many counties in Utah have already become 2A Sanctuary Counties. The state of Utah must take a lead in this. Please place this bill on the agenda.


Respectfully,
