We do not wield anywhere near the same amount of influence (especially with Senators and the Governor), or the same green money. It's a shame, but it's true.sd790 wrote:And we are right-leaning, pro-gun / pro-concealed carry, and make our presence known at the statehouse.JustaShooter wrote:Unfortunately, their leadership and union organizations are left-leaning, generally anti-gun / anti-concealed carry, and make their presence known at the statehouse.catfish86 wrote:I have several police for tax clients.

But, I know we caused a buzz at the statehouse on our legislative action days, so when it comes time for proponent testimony, *everyone that can* needs to participate, either in person or by letter. And, I'm guessing we will have additional legislative action days to press them (the Senate especially) even more.
So, get active. Call your state senator and representative. Write them - actual snail mail, pieces of paper, signed, stuffed in an envelope and mailed. Email them. Every time the legislation comes up, do it again. If everyone here did that, they would know how important this is, and maybe they would listen.
