Call to Action 2/15/2026! Witness Slips Needed!
FarmHand357 replied to mauserme's topic in Illinois Politics
I had to create a whole new account, but was able to use the same email and password, and then migrate previous witness slips over. However, once logged in, I can't just click on the IL Carry Oppose link and have pre-filled info; I have to at least enter my name again and then my browser, not the Illinois system, will prefill much of my info. What a pain; more cumbersome except that you can oppose the original bill and the HCA during the same entry... -
I routinely used UPS or FedEx to ship unloaded firearms to gunsmiths for trigger and other work and they were able to ship them back to me directly. Then, suddenly this changed and FFLs had to become involved, which made it very cumbersome to get non-local gunsmithing done. Does this mean that I can now us the USPS both ways legally?

David Lawler is willing to take self defense cases supports concealed carry. He works in the Adam B. Lawler firm in Marion Illinois, his uncle's firm I believe. He did give me cards to hand out to anyone who wants someone to contact in case of emergency. He said he checks for messages even on weekends. The firms phone number is 618-993-2222 and his email is dlawler@adamblawler.com Junglebob, much appreciation for posting David Lawler's contact info. Based upon your recommendation, I just had a pleasant chat with him. He's very knowledgeable on 2nd Amendment issues in Illinois and, for us in the southern part of the state, is an excellent option as an emergency contact in the event that any of us are, God forbid, involved in a self-defense shooting. After our discussion, I think he plans to join IllinoisCarry and is willing to provide other info, such as responses to hypothetical situations, for the forum. Thanks again - FarmHand357 -

Received cjurczak's cards and they turned out great. High quality and excellent design. Thanks! -
I don't believe we should abuse this new system; as far as I can tell, once your name is on a slip, you're done, even if you have more than one email address. It's my understanding that sometimes names of proponents and opponents are read in the committee meeting and it seems to me that it would strike the members as somewhat bogus to hear the same name from the same town read multiple times. That having been said, I see no problem with asking friends and family who don't have time or access but are willing to give you permission to use their names and email addresses so that you can submit witness slips on their behalf.
