Subject: A political victory for true carry rights in Wisconsin
Date: Sat, 29 May 2010 09:54:06 -0500
One of Wisconsin Carry's Founders Club Members Dave "Ole" Olson is a delegate with the Wisconsin Republican party who participated in the Wisconsin Republican Party convention in Milwaukee last weekend.
Oleis a very strong advocate for true carry rights and he has been working actively along with other delegates to make some important changes to the Republican platform.
The following document summarizes what has occurred at the GOP State Convention with the official Republican platform.

Wisconsin Carry and our membership willcontinue to strive to expand the ability to exercise the rights our state and federal constitution re-affirm through all available methods, political, legislative, legal/judicial, public awareness and any other effective means.
Thank-you to Ole for his efforts within the Wisconsin Republican Party and to Tom Irwin and Hudson Mayor Dean Knudson who spear headed the effort.
Carry On!
