view on this issue known.  It's late in the fourth quarter, and we're ahead by 28.  But as any New Orleans Saints fan knows, this is no guarantee of victory.  We cannot let up right now, especially considering the all-out assault that the anti-gun lobby will unleash this week.

To help ensure a steady flow throughout the day, I suggest that we stagger our calls.

If your last name begins with:

A - F: call between 9:30am - 11:00am eastern time.
G - L: call between 11:00am - 12:30pm eastern time.
M - S: call between 12:30pm - 2:00pm eastern time.
T - Z: call between 2:00pm - 3:30 eastern time.

Of course, this is merely a suggestion... don't fret if you can't call at your "designated" time.  Just call at whatever time you can!  Make these phone calls Tuesday, and Wednesday too if you can.

You can easily obtain your elected officials' contact info here:

State Senator info

In addition, call the White House and state your opposition to renewing the ban. 202-456-1111.  Though President Bush has expressed support for the ban in the past, he has not pushed Congress to pass a renewal, largely due to US.  Take this opportunity to politely remind him of how important this issue is to us.

Forward this to everyone you know, and let us leave no doubt in the minds of our elected officials as to just how unpopular this gun ban is!

My senators are locked in their positions now.

George Allen is against the AWB. (Lots of screaming from us changed his mind...)

Warner is remaining intractable.

My House rep is against renewal.

Yep, I was pleasantly surprised at Allen's change of mind. Shrock is my Rep I think...I think he's for renewal but can't remember. He's retiring for calling a gay phone sex line anyhow.

That doesn't necessarily make it a total waste to call... it'll still let them know how many people in their state oppose the AWB, and might make them just a little less likely to actively push for a vote.
