This bill has not yet been sent to the House; according to the bill history, this bill has only been referred to the Judiciary committee. This means that at this point, blindly emailing every House and Senate rep is counter-productive because only those on the Judiciary can currently make a decision on it.

The best thing to do is to contact Judiciary members and make your voice heard to make sure the bill doesn't get out of committee. If the bill gets out of committee (and I hope it doesn't), that's when it's time to email the House and Senate members en masse.
Nitpick right back at you

Disagree. We have seen how fast bills can become law at 3 am after its out of committee. These laws much be treated as cancer - cut out and burned at the very first sign. Also, it lets your rep know not even to consider such foolishness if and when it ever comes up for a vote.

Side note - when is PAFOA getting into this fight so that we can lobby and scream with one loud voice?
