Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring has declared that the second Amendment sanctuary city decrees of over 100 Virginia localities “have no force in law.”

Virginia AG Declares Second Amendment Sanctuary Cities Have “No Force of Law”
Sure they do, they didn’t vote for it. We the people vote on any laws involving any changes in the Constitution.
P0S politicians don’t get to decide that for us.
