any updates on this i got the same message

No, I do not believe it is. Try calling this number for the Review Board 708.227.1510 and leave a message with your full legal name, FOID number, date of birth and your contact number. Tell them what happened when you tried to upload and ask for confirmation that someone received your message and ask what you should do.

Definitely !! 😆

Both are equally frightening ! 😵

Oh, I agree whole-heartedly. The problem is that my preferred action is neither "ethical" nor legal. But maybe it should be. Then again, it may actually come down to that in the not so distant future.

I'll be away...

Hi Molly, I tried sending my CCL Objection Response through the portal but it said the file is to large. I emailed it to ISP.FirearmReinstatementUnit@illinois.gov and wanted to know if this is the correct email.

The bill passed with 111 votes.

HB2412 State Police Organization is up. The sponsor explains it as reorganization and defining the functions of ISP. He knows of no opposition.

Yes or Firefox, Chrome, and Safari... A threesome more

Absolutely, but they'll have to at least edit it for length since they have been filing 70 pages.

The House is back.

the original roster was like a CPSC act for drop tests and the like, since they -- CPSC were banned from testing firearms. So a roster may likely survive in some limited capacity, but the microstamping mandate was just handed a death blow by this judge as well as the concept of piling on requirements to see that no new firearms are allowed for sale. Its a good ruling for us, solid and takes a few shots at the logic of the anti-gunners, Tuesday 2A round vid coming in an hour

they are going to file the same garbage they have been filing in the other cases

The Senate stands adjourned until 3/22/2023 @ 12:00 Noon.

The government had asked to be able to file an oversized brief of 70 pages. The judge has allowed for oversized, but only 50 pages: 16 - Mar 21, 2023 - MINUTE entry before the Honorable Iain D. Johnston: The defendants' motion for leave to file an oversized brief 15 is unopposed and granted in limited part. The response brief shall not exceed 50 pages. (yxp, )

The House is in recess for a Republican caucus.
