I understand that there is something like a 10% unemployment rate in this country. There will be no shortage of qualified applicants for the jobs recently vacated by those challenging their employers' positions on guns in, and around, the workplace.
I wish it wasn't so but as Walter Cronkite used to say as he closed his newscasts, "...and that's the way it is...".

I would find a way to slim it down before the Editor does a slash and burn job that will leave it unrecognizable to you.
To the original post good luck, I also work for a company that bans employee "unauthorized" carry of a weapon. Can't find out who or how you can get authorized so it goes in the trunk when I arrive and back in the IWB when I leave or before if I am the only one there after hours. I've already given my notice to these guys not because of that but other issues in the realm of archaic systems in place.
My wife works for a company that does allow for concealed carry and one of their guys dusted a dude that couldn't understand stop I have a gun while removing tools from their company trucks and continued over a fence toward him. My soon to be former employer has 5000+ employees hers has 150 my gut is to get back to a smaller locally based employer.

Re: Proof Read - Letter to Employer
Sounds like you've got another job lined up? This ain't a good time to be shakin' the bushes.
Seriously, isn't there someone in authority (not HR puppets) who may be sympathetic/open to your cause whom you can talk to about this? A letter is sorta' like a bell. Once rung, it can't be un-rung. If the letter must be written, the word you're looking for is "concise". Keep your letter brief, to the point and definitely not adversarial or confrontational.
The documentation/substantiation of your position can be presented during the interview after the letter gets read by someone with the authority to make decisions.
Good luck.
