HB 2229: Opposing Unconstitutional Detention

Virginia House Bill 2229, though valuable, is depressing.

Here's the short list of delegates, including the bill's patron, Ben Cline, who need to know that their constituents support this declawed effort to uphold the Constitution during the next week:
