Scots Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:37 PM Share Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:37 PM Of course they will. If they can't get it done in the Senate, try it in the House first. Never mind that the bills will probably be even more unconstitutional and even more disregarding of every court case in the last five years. Thanks for the update, Todd. Let's all get on the phones and emails and light them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vess1 Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:48 PM Share Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:48 PM This will be the third post Ive made asking why anyone was celebrating. If they have the votes to ram something through, they will vote on it and ram it through. They are not a neutral force. They are a constant opponent of what people in Illinois want. If we get to a point where we're more than covered with the laws we have, they will still be trying to pass 1000 more. Its all they have to do. As time goes on, the laws pile up but it doesnt matter. Gotta create more unendingly. Sent from my Motorola Electrify using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abolt243 Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:50 PM Share Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:50 PM Call your Representative's local and Springfield office. Do it today, then fill up their machines tomorrow if no one's answering their phones on Saturday, then on Sunday as they should be open. The House comes into session at 5:00 p.m. Light up the Speaker's offices too. Here's a link to his contact info with fax lines, etc. His Springfield office number in the Capitol is (217) 782-581-8000. His office in Chicago is (773) 581-8000. Start the calls now. Call the Governor: Springfield: (217) 782-0244, Chicago: (312) 814-2121 Somebody in the Chicago area post Emannuel's office numbers. We just as well burn some lines up there too. Sic 'em guys and gals, this crap has got to stop. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Beret Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:55 PM Share Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:55 PM We should shoot for something over 71 "NO" votes just to show them that the house belongs to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt_Destro Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:58 PM Share Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:58 PM I'm trying to remember, weren't our odds in the house much better than the senate? What were the numbers when the last bill was struck down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyGuy Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:59 PM Share Posted January 4, 2013 at 02:59 PM Any bill numbers to reference? Why did I not receive an Illinoiscarry alert about this? I registered for them. Again, we should have these alerts go out IMMEDIATELY instead of waiting for people to log in here to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yas Posted January 4, 2013 at 03:10 PM Share Posted January 4, 2013 at 03:10 PM Todd is the CCW bill ready to go? I suspect this is crap being flung to attempt to stave off a CCW bill from being brought forth and allowing it to be seriously concidered in Springfield. We've been thru this political stunt many times before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
