I can’t find that. Would you mind copying that part here?
And I got the same thing from OGO now.

So, if it's back to the original language (is it back to the original language?), do we need to call our Reps and have them vote in favor of this bill?

If it's close to being back to the original language the OSP and FOP will prod Kasick to veto the bill if it comes to his desk.
No, it is NOT back to its original language
All we know is an amendment is going to be proposed .
The amendment may fail (probably), or if the amendment passes, the bill itself may fail.
We shall see
I wish I was there

Wiggam just said he never discussed Castile with the gun groups. He most certainly did discuss it with me.

He was responding to Representative Howse's question. She asked about Castile in the context of discussing notification with "gun owners of color." Last I checked OFCC doesn't stand for Ohioans for Colored Carriers.
Honestly I'm not sure what Rep. Howese's point was. Was she hoping gun owners of color would have said "oh no, we love the man. We want to have to repeatedly notify under ambiguous circumstances." ?
I know what he was responding to, he told her that regarding gun rights groups, he didn’t discuss it.

Rep Vitale confirmed to us that he stood twice and even shouted “Mr. Speaker!” But was refused recognition.
What’s more, every representative in the chamber had his amendment on their computer terminals, with his intention of offering it.
Refusing to call on him was dirty political trick, plain and simple.
Speaker Rosenberger was determined to deny us our vote.

That is BS. IMO there should be political ramifications against any speaker who refuses to allow an amendment to be offered (from either side) as long as it is germane to the subject at hand. You never heard of such chicanery while Batchelder was speaker. He allowed the opposition to offer amendments to our bills all the time. They got voted down and the process continued. Shouldn't have informally passed it while Hagan had the gavel...
Wiggam was definitely the most nervous speaker of the day. It was pretty obvious when he lost is place in his speech, so I'm not surprised the Q&A came out as it did.
I liked how Rep. Holmes, (D - McDonald) had the (whooo) to eloquently call out the FOP for being in opposition, more or less saying they don't get it. I know nothing about that gentleman but I'd like to learn more.
He quizzed me pretty hard in testimony about remaining silent.
I told him if asked, we were bound to answer truthfully, but I thought we should still have that right to remain silent.

Watched channel 7 news Dayton tonight and they had a segment on the HB142 and explained the new law. They also had a spokesman for the Ohio FOP which expressed his disgust for the passage of the bill. He says it will increase confrontations between law enforcement and concealed carriers.
