mauserme Posted February 13, 2019 at 10:07 PM Author Share Posted February 13, 2019 at 10:07 PM This is the thread where we list the bills we're following in the 2019 Spring Session. The lists will eventually include bills filed, approved in committee, potentially passed from one house to the other or passed into law. When bills of interest are scheduled to potentially be heard in a committee we'll send an email alert with links, and duplicate that alert in a separate thread on the forum and on our Facebook page. The bills I listed today were filed today, so they are early in the process - too early for witness slips. We'll see what happens but it looks like we'll be doing another alert this weekend so watch for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshot9 Posted February 18, 2019 at 04:27 AM Share Posted February 18, 2019 at 04:27 AM While I know this may be a tad off topic, I feel it needs to be stated. We play defense too much, I recently viewed a GOA video about national reciprocity and how they feel this can keep the grabers occupied, coincidently I was also listening to Dan Carlins hardcore history podcast on the blueprint for Armageddon and how successful modern armys strike hard and fast (paraphrasing). Well thinking about the both lead me to thinking about a deep strike that may keep the grabbers at bay. Section 22 of the Illinois Constitution is in violation of more then one amendment to the US Constitution, why cant we strike at the heart of the problem and sue them in federal court, tie up the states legal resources in court and give these legislators something to think about besides unconstitutional laws. Maybe Im naive but Id be willing to throw some money at the cause.Im open to your commentary, yes I know I dont post a lot/or at all. Im a lurker who usually spends more time working then surfing the web but I am politically active and have flesh in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im a lurker who usually spends more time working then surfing the web but I am politically active and have flesh in the game.IllinoisCarry has always subscribed to a three prong approach to gun rights - legislative, judicial, and electoral. I usually think of a forth, public relations, as being part of it too. More to your point, there is judicial activity both at the state and federal level. When we win, and cases are chosen carefully to increase the likelihood of a win, each builds upon the ones that came before it. Thinking in those terms it might make more sense to let the New York case play out in SCOTUS before going after that section of the Illinois Constitution.

mauserme Posted March 13, 2019 at 11:45 PM Author Share Posted March 13, 2019 at 11:45 PM Thanks.I'm inclined to think this is something we'll ultimately oppose for several reasons, one of which is that it seems to be based on some assumptions about what different agencies should do without actually spelling those things out. For, now, though, I added it as "under review". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
