mauserme Posted February 2, 2012 at 04:48 AM Share Posted February 2, 2012 at 04:48 AM The 97th General Assembly "Part 2" started January 30, 2012 and we are in need of volunteers to help watch for new bills. Monitoring this is critical to our continued success in fighting for our Second Amendement rights, yet the process is quite easy. Each volunteer will be assigned a group of 200 bill numbers. Simply visit the Bills and Resolutions page of the General Assembly, click on the number groups assigned to you, and check any that appear to effect us (normally this is best done by right clicking the bill, then clicking "open in a new tab". so you don't lose your place in the list). Pay particular attention to bills that effect the following codes, including "shell bills" that change a single word but can be used for other purposes later. Appropriations bills can be ignored: 430 - Public Safety Code520 - Wildlife Code525 - Conservation Code720 - Criminal Code Since we started monitoring bills last year many number groups are already assigned: House Bills to monitor: 0001 - 0200 mstrat0201 - 0400 Hatchet0401 - 0600 mauserme0601 - 0800 XD400801 - 1000 45superman1001 - 1200 Xwing1201 - 1400 Drylok1401 - 1600 mstrat1601 - 1800 Assistantchief1801 - 2000 Federal Farmer2001 - 2200 Lou2201 - 2400 Abolt2432401 - 2600 Lou2601 - 2800 Drylock2801 - 3000 2old2play3001 - 3200 Federal Farmer3201 - 3400 Lou3401 - 3600 Lou3601 - 3800 Lockman 3801 - 4000 Lockman --------------------------------------------------------- 4001 - 4200 Johnnybgood4201 - 4400 Lou4401 - 4600 Drylok4601 - 4800 Ishmo4801 - 5000 XD405001 - 5200 Getzapped5201 - 5400 SMSRods5401 - 5600 Xwing5601 - 5800 Abolt2435801 - 6000 lockman6001 - 6200 nocaster6201 - 6400 nocaster Senate Bills to monitor 0001 - 0200 45superman0201 - 0400 Hatchet0401 - 0600 Gary0601 - 0800 Thirdpower0801 - 1000 Assistantchief1001 - 1200 Federal Farmer1201 - 1400 Lou1401 - 1600 Abolt2431601 - 1800 Lou1801 - 2000 Drylock2001 - 2200 Johnnybgood2201 - 2400 Mac2401 - 2600 Drylock ------------------------------------------------------ 2601 - 2800 Lou2801 - 3000 SMSRods3001 - 3100 lieut893101 - 3300 Ishmo3301 - 3500 XD403501 - 3700 Getzapped3701 - 3900 Xwing3901 - 4100 Abolt 243 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll see something like this: Click on the group(s) assigned to you to get the full list of titles. It will be similar to this: The bills indicated would definately be something to look at. Click them, read the descritpion, and post in this thread if they are firearm related. You can follow examples set in the earlier thread (see post #15 for example). Can I put you down for a few?

ishmo Posted February 2, 2012 at 10:13 PM Share Posted February 2, 2012 at 10:13 PM Here's what I saw in the SB 3101 - 3300 batch I took. There are a couple of shell bills that refer to the administrative code but no language that concerns me at the moment. I noted the numbers and will check on them every few days to make sure they don't do an end run. I'll work on the HB batch later tonight or first thing in the morning.
