Tvandermyde Posted October 9, 2017 at 02:57 PM Share Posted October 9, 2017 at 02:57 PM Some good news. The day after HB-4107 was introduced Republican Steve Andersson appeared as a co-sponsor. The retiring republicans name sent red flags up. Rep Andersson just called me to let me know he did NOT authorize his name to be added tot he bill, he is NOT infavor of the bill and has NOT changed his position on the 2A issues. He will be asking that his name be removed from the bill but since state government is closed today, it may not happen till tomorrow. Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd he should stay on as a cosponsor and add amendments to neuter the bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdDinIL Posted October 9, 2017 at 04:10 PM Share Posted October 9, 2017 at 04:10 PM So how does a representative get added as a co-sponsor like this in the first place? I can think of any number of options, each requiring a different amount of tin foil, but I'm not familiar with the process, so I'll just assume an overzealous office clerk screwed up.

EdDinIL Posted October 9, 2017 at 04:21 PM Share Posted October 9, 2017 at 04:21 PM It looks like Rep. Andersson's name is off the bill. In fact, the action adding him as a co-sponsor has been redacted, too, as opposed to seeing a second action with his name being removed as a co-sponsor. House Sponsors Rep. Martin J. Moylan - Mary E. Flowers, Emanuel Chris Welch, Michelle Mussman, Sonya M. Harper, Thaddeus Jones, Anna Moeller, Sara Feigenholtz, Natalie A. Manley, Linda Chapa LaVia, John C. D'Amico, Elizabeth Hernandez, Barbara Flynn Currie, Christian L. Mitchell, Laura Fine, Kelly M. Burke, Fred Crespo and Frances Ann Hurley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soylentgreen Posted October 9, 2017 at 06:09 PM Share Posted October 9, 2017 at 06:09 PM Some good news. Thank you for the update, Todd. I'm very concerned about this bill. My suggestion to anyone who would register under this bill should it become law...just go ahead and hand in your stuff and save everyone the trouble. Phase Two is confiscation. Although, I'm not certain how the law would be enforced on existing owners...since no one knows where the guns are and the state is dead broke and has zero resources to spend on it. How many billions did Canada spend on its registration scheme before they finally gave up due to utter non-compliance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want to clear out the prisons but make gun owners felons...except for those on that cruise with the bad accident when a number of items went overboard ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashdump Posted October 10, 2017 at 03:56 PM Share Posted October 10, 2017 at 03:56 PM Light them phones up. I called my rep's district office and Springfield office this AM. Apparently, I am the first to call about it at either location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have been going to the Town Halls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
