Urgent Call to Action





Witness Slips Needed







Earlier this evening Amendment 1 to SB556 Criminal Law Tech was scheduled to be heard in the Senate Judiciary Committee tomorrow morning at 10:30 AM. If this bill becomes law it will arbitrarily define and ban possession of “assault weapons” throughout the State of Illinois.



Witness Slips Are Needed Now!




Please take a moment tonight or early tomorrow morning to show your opposition to this ban on the some of the most commonly owned, modern firearms.


And, if you haven't already filed a witness slip against SB1657 Gun Dealer Licensing, please see the instructions in our IllinoisCarry Forum Alert. File these slips before tomorrow morning as well!



In order to avoid completing each field manually, Log on to your ILGA Dashboard or Create a New Account if you haven't already created one, then return to this email and click on the links for each witness slip. If you do not wish to create an account, simply click on each witness slip link and complete the required fields manually:


I, IDENTIFICATION: Enter your personal information. Enter "NA" for the Firm/Business or Agency and Title fields unless you are officially representing an organization.


II. REPRESENTATION: Enter "Myself" unless representing an organization.


III. POSITION: Unless instructed otherwise for a particular bill leave the description field at its default value "Original Bill". Indicate your position by selecting the "Proponent" or "Opponent" radio button.


IV. TESTIMONY: Select the "Record of Appearance Only" radio button.


If filing manually, complete the Captcha challenge and agree to the ILGA Terms of Agreement.


Then click Create Slip.




OPPOSE SB1657 Gun Dealer Licensing








Witness slips can be tracked here.

Done X3, does this one really even stand a chance? Seems like the anti-gun zealots are putting everything into 1657.

 

I agree, but we don't want to take any chances of something moving one way while we're looking somewhere else.

After Spring Session we might have to think about getting them more involved in these things. For now, let's just focus on killing bad bills and welcome anyone who wants to help us do that.

This one really chaps my shorts, makes it a CLASS ONE FELONY, 4 to 15 years.

 

And the sponsor, a former 82nd airborne army soldier and retired CPD officer, should know better.

 

What organization pumped up this little pinata's cojones?

 

btw: done...

Off the top of my head, probably the CPD Police union. They want to disarm the gang bangers.
