Castle Doctrine discussed

<< < (4/5) > >>

bkoenig:
I emailed Coash last time Castle Doctrine came up and he was supportive of it.  He's a good friend to the NFOA.

DanClrk51:
Yes Colby Coash was one of the 4 "yes" voters to move it out of committee last year. Those were Rogert, Lautenbaugh, Coash, and Christensen. The other 4 naysayers were Ashford, Council, McGill and Lathrop. It was a 4-4 tie which is why it never got out of committee.

Rogert (Democrat) who sat on the committee was not re-elected and lost to Republican Lydia Brasch. From what i have read on this forum about Brasch it seems she is both pro 2nd Amendment and pro Castle Doctrine. Does anyone know if she will replace Rogert on the committee or if someone else will replace his seat?

Sadly both Ashford and McGill won re-election. Apparently Ashford changed party affiliation from Democrat to Republican just recently before the election however he was unopposed. I believe Lathrop is also a Republican? Correct me if i'm wrong. Regardless if we want to get Castle Doctrine out of committee this session we will need to sway Ashford and/or Lathrop to our side. McGill and Council will both be hardline "no" votes.

FarmerRick:
It would really surprise me if it gets out of committee without being someone's(Christensen's) priority bill.

No, she won't automatically get that spot. An actually I think everyone will have to get reappointed to the committee, however I'm sure the current members usually do.

How does the appointment process work?
