    Dear fellow gun owner:

    As you’ve probably heard, the state Assembly today failed by a vote of 64 to
    34 to override Governor Doyle’s veto of the Personal Protection Act, two
    votes shy of the required 66 votes to override.

    All sixty Republicans voted for the veto override.

    Four brave Democrats–Representatives Barbara Gronemus, Amy Sue Vruwink,
    Marlin Schneider, and Mary Hubler–kept their promises to you and voted to
    override. They showed themselves to be true friends of gun owners.

    Two Democrats broke their promises to you: Representative Terry Van Akkeren
    of Sheboygan, who voted for this bill in 2003, voted for the veto override
    in 2004, and voted for the bill last month; and Representative John
    Steinbrink of southeastern Kenosha county, who voted for the bill in 2002,
    voted for the bill in 2003, voted to override Doyle’s veto in 2004, and also
    voted for the bill last month.

    Clearly, Governor Doyle’s wields iron-fisted control over members of his
    party, even if his own selfish agenda means those members will suffer the
    ultimate sacrifice at the polls in November.

    Just as clearly, we will almost certainly not be able to get concealed carry
    passed while Jim Doyle is governor.

    To that end, our political action committee will be hosting fund-raising
    events that we think you’ll enjoy. But the serious and sole purpose of these
    events will be to raise money for real pro-gun candidates in the fall
    elections.

    And to defeat Jim Doyle.

    The amount of money we will need to raise to defeat Doyle will far exceed
    what our political action committee has raised in the past.

    We hope that you’ll welcome the invitations to the fund-raising events, and
    will participate to every extent possible for a worthy cause.

    Governor Doyle is betting that you’ll forget this treachery by November.

    Never forget. And never stop fighting for what is right.

    Thanks,
    The Wisconsin Concealed Carry Association
