Default Philadelphia elections are making gun laws a big issue

Several candidates runnig for office in Philadelphia (and positioning themselves for next year's mayoral election) are makiing gun laws a big issue.

If you feel strongly enough about this, please get involved in some way. Calling or writing the office of your state rep. or preferred candidate is a good place to start. Volunteering your time for a campaign is another. If we don't speak up we will be ignored.

I've said this here before: we need to work hard to preserve our rights, as those who wish to take them away are surely working hard to do so.

Those of us who live elsewhere in the state should be concerned as well. What happens in Filthydelphia tends to bleed over into the rest of the state.

We need to vote smart. That means knowing a canidates gun stand BEFORE we vote them in office.

Call your reps and the chairmen of the judicary committee today or tomorrow. The meetings are on the 26th. fax them if you can but I would say call and leave a message on their machine today so monday they have a full machine full of messages.

Where can I find out who my State Senator is (Berks County)? I know who my State Representative is, and I've already sent email to him and his colleague in the neighboring district.

Also, who is the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee?

Thanks!

UPDATE: Please ignore, found the info. Thanks!
