Molly B. Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:19 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:19 PM The Senate Dems. plan to caucus right after the Executive committee hearing this morning. If any of the Gov's veto items have any support, they plan to run them as separate trailer bills. Please call your state senator and urge them to vote NO on any other changes to the carry bill! http://www.capwiz.com/nra/dbq/officials/ http://www.ilga.gov/senate/
TyGuy Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:26 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:26 PM I'd laugh if it wasn't so sad. You can't trust them one bit. Compromise after compromise, ugh.
chidiver Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:33 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:33 PM Called (tho it doesn't matter with my Sen). Lets keep in mind that a 3/5 vote is required to pass anything right now (I think). Its DOA in the house anyway. This feels like a combination of posturing and putting out feelers for carry changes at the fall session (likely before the first permit is issued). Lets beat this down NOW! Actually, I hope Phelps reciprocates by putting forward a bill in the house nuking the prohibited places and costs. A little tit for tat. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

A little tit for tat. +1 they will never play fair or above board. Why the heck should we!!!!My people contacted. Thanks Molly for the heads up!!!!!!!
panterarck Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:45 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:45 PM Done. Hopefully Cullerton takes heed and listens.
Xwing Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:46 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:46 PM Sen emailed. We need to be proactive in this. If passed, it makes carry worthless!
markthesignguy Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:51 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:51 PM done, Harmon.. phones must be busy, got voicemail.
blazzinbird Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:51 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:51 PM So now I wonder if the over ride will pass
Prairie Eagle Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:55 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:55 PM Calls made, emails sent. This last minute game playing is a very dangerous thing to do, they risk sending everyone back into their corners after so many hard compromises and negotiations and sending the whole kit-and-kaboodle over the cliff, and I let me senatot know as much and to express that in caucus as she is a D (who has been decent on 2nd amendment rights to date).
markthesignguy Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:55 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:55 PM ten votes to strip, a heck of a lot more to pass something else. AND then there's the HOUSE, to make it law... There's a REASON why the gun issue is called the "third rail" of politics....

Camar10 Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:11 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:11 PM Done! He responded to me that "he is confident there will be enough to override his veto."
moparman71 Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:19 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:19 PM Called Sen. Barrickman's office.
ilphil Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:21 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:21 PM Get used to it...this is going to be an ongoing guerilla war with those bleeping Cook County Dems.
Drylok Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:30 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:30 PM Chapin Rose just left me a voicemail. He's a little concerned about the senate but doesn't think they'll get any of this crap through the house. Talked to both Adam and Todd last night but not sure if I should post any of those conversations on the board. Todd seemed in good spirits and ready to tare some tail in committee this morning lol
Mohonri Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:34 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:34 PM Emailed Sen. Bertino-Tarrant.
doubletap Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:51 PM Posted July 9, 2013 at 03:51 PM Called ..... But Noland is my senator ....
