    Default PA 2A lovers it's time to call your senators now!

    For all members who may not be following the below thread regarding our Preemption laws which is currently being tossed around by the Senate now this is the time to put your money where your mouth is and start making some calls. It aggravates the shit out of me to hear that our senators are getting more calls from the Anti's like Cease fire PA and Moms demand action paid shills and funded by out of state billionaires then they are from PA pro 2Agun owners.

    http://forum.pafoa.org/pennsylvania-...ml#post2864805

    With a member base of 68,000 plus on this site alone if just a quarter of the active members here took less then 5 minutes to make 3 or 4 calls then I doubt that the anti's would even come close out our voicing us on our rights.

    Here is a good place to start. Each call really takes less then 20 sec all you need to provide is your name, country/town and kindly state the below.

    Support HB1243 with NO AMENDMENTS.

    Senator Leach phone: (717) 787-5544
    Senator Greenleaf Phone: (717) 787-6599
    Senator Pileggi phone: (717) 787-4712

    If Chuck McElhinney or Tommy Tomlinson is your state senator, call or write every day until the election to let them know that you're not voting for them because they caused HB 1243 to die.

    You have a source for this or is it speculation? Doesn't make sense because they aren't judiciary members.

    There are probably less than 2000 occasional members on this forum and less than a couple hundred routinely posting. Going from memory, we've done that math before

    Neither of these two were on the committee that failed to vote yesterday. Now Rafferty and Greenleaf are a whole different story...

    I understand. I wonder how many will be coming back to check in or to pitch a bitch when the Anti's meet their goal or on November 3rd too scream the sky is falling and too warn us all to stock up on mag's, lowers and ammo if Wolf wins? The pro-gun community cant afford to have Johnny-come-latelies in it's ranks not now and not in the foreseeable future.

    It's not speculation. Doesn't matter that they're not on Judiciary Committee. They're Greenleaf's neighbors. They asked Greenleaf to cancel the meeting because they didn't want to vote on the floor on the Dem's amendments, especially before an election.

    Again, do you have a reliable source for this or is it a hunch? There is no floor vote until second consideration and were no amendments to the bill outside of committee that I know of. This doesn't make sense at this point. If that were the case he would never have scheduled it. He did something that he has NEVER done before when this was scheduled...

    Your heart is in the right place, but there is NO WAY a bill on a controversial subject will be voted on 4 weeks before an election.

    ETA: The truth doesnt matter, all it takes is one look at what ceasefirepa put on their website to realize that... it is indeed shameful, but these guys in the house and senate are career politicians, none of whom truly care about your rights, if that means risking an election.

    CeasefirePA has far less power in PA than politically active gun owners. They've never won anything, and they only will if we let them. Which is possible, don't get me wrong. But it's up to us.

    I would guess this could be passed before the election because few of the people willing to vote for it would expect any negative consequences at the polls. But it is politics and people get nervous.
