March Legislative Update

Thanks to everyone who participated in writing letters in support of the bills in Virginia and Colorado.  Unfortunately, both of these bills are dead.  With the changes that happened in the legislatures post elections it was expected that there would be a lot of work to do, especially in educating the freshman.  Unfortunately, it just wasn't enough for either state to get a bill adding additional regulation approved in a climate where people are looking for less regulation.

 
Now its time to keep your eyes on Iowa, Maryland, and (soon) North Carolina.  These states are likely to need our help in the coming weeks.  If you are from one of these states and interested in contributing to any efforts at your school, please talk to your NMSA legislative chairs.
