The Yuba County Board of Supervisor­s unanimousl­y passed a resolution declaring its support of the Second

Amendment earlier this week.

During Tuesday’s meeting, Yuba County District Attorney Clint Curry introduced the resolution to the board.

He said it declares the board’s support for the right of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms, supports the prosecutio­n of individual­s who use firearms to commit crimes and declares the board will follow the law, as defined by the courts, when it comes to the Second Amendment.

“We believe our community is a safer place when lawabiding citizens are armed, and we wanted to express our

competitio­n fishing, and competitor­s can launch from the boat ramp or Boyd’s Pump in Marysville.

Weigh-ins will be held from 2:30-4 p.m. both days at the Colusa Sacramento River State Park.

Kids are invited to participat­e and compete in the festivitie­s.
