Ladies and Gentlemen,
The Virginia Citizen's Defense League, along with around 4 dozen other state & national groups has submitted a new petition to NPS to amend the Parks weapons ban and restore the right of self defense to Park visitors.

There's a link to the new petition, plus more FOIA documents showing that NPS is requiring personal safety waivers be signed to conduct research in some parks.
What you can do:
If you belong to one or more groups that represent your firearms interests, check to see if they are a co-petitioner. If not, ask them to get in touch with VCDL -
www.vcdl.org and ask to be a co-petitioner.
Call your congressional delegation and tell them to support VCDL's Petition.
There's also Senator Coburn's amendment to eliminate the ban legislatively.
Every little bit helps.
