<p>GOVERNOR'S VETO</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<ul><p>Pursuant to Article V, Section 6, of the Constitution of
Virginia, I veto Senate Bill 258, which relates to risk factors and
considerations for substantial risk orders.</p>

</ul><ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

</ul><ul><p>The legislation treats the Second Amendment as a secondary
right compared to other constitutional guarantees, and the proposed expansion
of substantial risk orders is excessively broad and overreaching.</p>

</ul><ul><p>&nbsp;</p>

</ul><ul><p>Accordingly, I veto this bill.</p>
