There will be a senate judiciary hearing on August 23rd to remove pre-emption from the Illinois law, opening the door for municipal assault weapon bans.





Your witness slip in OPPOSITION is necessary to block this effort funded by Bloomberg and Everytown. Please file your witness slip in opposition of SB2130 here: http://my.ilga.gov/WitnessSlip/Create?committeeHearingId=14060&legislationId=0





If you need help in filing your witness slip, please reply and I will walk you through the process.

This didn't die in Assignments?!

It hasn't been assigned to Judiciary yet. I didn't realize they could discuss it anyway as "subject matter".

Tag for later to fill out the slip from home.

EDIT: Nevermind, hit!

Filed my witness slip.

But I have little faith in legislation in Illinois being honest and transparent. Bloomberg is determined to screw us over.

Thanks all who signed. All gun owners have to get more involved in the legislative process.  We need more witness slips and more letters to elected tyrants!

We have to be constantly vigilant in our fight against Anti-American legislation.  All the Democrats have to do is be successful one time.

So if this passes we will once again end up with a patchwork of regulations that vary from municipality to municipality.  

You are legal here but cross the street and you are now a felon.

Yes but only for long guns, as this bill leaves preemption for hand guns intact.

Would existing items be grandfathered?

This proposed  bill is not an AWB but it allows local goverments to pass their own versions so its impossible to predict what would be in them...other than nothing good!
