Terry McAuliffe Vetoes Pro-Gun Bills"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe was busy this past week, signing several pro-gun bills while vetoing some others.<\/p>\n<p>McAuliffe is, for the record, not a true gun-rights supporter. During his campaign for office, he took donation money from former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg and voiced support for universal background checks, banning so-called \u201cassault-weapons\u201d and a one-gun-a-month rule.<\/p>\n<p><strong>According to the National Rifle Association\u2019s Institute for Legislative Action, McAuliffe vetoed the following bills:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/lis.virginia.gov\/cgi-bin\/legp604.exe?151+sum+sb948\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"virginia-gov-terry-mcauliffe-vetoes-pro-gun-bills\" title=\"Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe Vetoes Pro-Gun Bills\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Senate Bill 948<\/a>: Sponsored by pro-gun Senator Richard Stuart (R-28), SB 948 would prohibit the sharing of information on concealed handgun permit holders with law enforcement in states that do not have reciprocity agreements with Virginia. This prohibits states hostile to gun ownership from going on fishing expeditions and using this information as an excuse to harass law-abiding Virginia permit holders while they are traveling out of state.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/lis.virginia.gov\/cgi-bin\/legp604.exe?151+sum+SB1137\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"virginia-gov-terry-mcauliffe-vetoes-pro-gun-bills\" title=\"Virginia Gov.

The reforms in this bill would benefit Virginia\u2019s law-abiding firearm owners by ensuring the process to obtain certain federally-regulated firearms, already legal in Virginia, remains fair, fact-based and objective.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>McAuliffe also signed the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/lis.virginia.gov\/cgi-bin\/legp604.exe?151+sum+SB838\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"virginia-gov-terry-mcauliffe-vetoes-pro-gun-bills\" title=\"Virginia Gov.
