Call to Action 3/17/2019 - Witness Slips Needed!

We're Getting There


The deadline to move bills out of committee is approaching. There is one week left in the Senate and two weeks in the House. Though our calls for witness slips may soon be less frequent, this week does bring the need for witness slips on five bills.

March 20 is a gun control advocacy day in Springfield. We would like to counteract that by flooding the sponsors of these bills with witness slips opposing HB2254 Safe Gun - Storage and HB3553 Municipal & County - Regulate Firearm. Both bills have been included in past Calls to Action, and both appear to be of special interest to our opposition. Please enlist the help of your friends, family, and folks at the range to file witness slips opposing these bills. Even if they file slips on no other bills, their help is needed to send a direct message to those who would infringe on our rights.

In addition to those, we would like to remind our friends in the legislature of this paragraph in the state GOP party platform:

We believe that day-to-day safety and security in our local communities is critical. Therefore, we strongly endorse and support the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, which states, in part, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. As a result, we oppose any efforts by the state or municipalities to impede the right of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms.


The message they send is strong; strong enough to raise expectations among Illinois gun owners, strong enough to leave no room for equivocation. Join us in sending an equally strong reminder to the sponsors of HB2653 Firearm Penalties, HB3169 Ban Bump - Fire Stock, and HB3170 Machine Gun Penalties of their party's commitment to defending our rights by filing witness slips against their proposed impediments.
