Senator Charles Dean (R- Inverness) appeared at a press conference held by the anti-gun Florida Chamber of Commerce.  During his speech, Senator Dean touted his NRA membership and then disparaged NRA’s leadership for pushing legislation to protect our right to keep and bear arms and our right to self-defense.  Senator Dean also claimed that the issue of having a firearm in your private vehicle for lawful purposes, while parked in a public accessed parking lot, is not important to NRA members.

Please contact Senator Dean and let him know how important the Right to Keep and Bear Arms and the right to self-defense are to you.
