Have you all seen this travesty?

The FL legislature has taken $6M from the Division of Licensing Concealed Weapons and Firearm Trust Fund that is intended, by law, to be used solely for administering the concealed weapons and firearms licensing program.
Right now, the concealed weapons and firearms licensing program is backlogged and overloaded due in part to the refusal of budget officials and the Legislature to allow the Division of Licensing to use its own trust fund money to hire more employees and expand/upgrade equipment.
Crates of unopened mail containing license and license renewal applications sit in storage. The backlog of mail sitting unopened, at times, has extended beyond 90 days while existing licenses are expiring because renewal applications haven't been opened and processed.
The only remaining action to save it is the Governor's Line Item Veto.
Send your email to the Governor at this address:

Please send your email today!!!!! And/or please contact the Governor's office by phone or fax ASAP.
YOU MUST DO IT NOW. THE GOVERNOR WILL ACT ON THE BUDGET SOON.
You might even send one to your local legislator to let them know you will be voting against him or her next election.
