Pennsylvania: Contact your State Legislators in Support of Important Preemption Legislation

With only six days left in the 2016 legislative session, it is imperative that you contact your state legislators and urge them to support both Senate Bill 1330 and House Bill 2258.

Gun owners across the Keystone state have waited long enough for this much-needed reform as they continue to be unduly burdened by local ordinances which violate the current state firearm preemption law. Citizens with no criminal intent should not be placed in jeopardy of running afoul of local restrictions they don`t even know exist simply because they have crossed from one municipality to another.

Earlier this year, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court struck down ACT 192 – Firearm Preemption Legislation - for violation of the “single subject” rule for legislative process. Both SB 1330 and HB 2258, if again enacted into law, would strengthen Pennsylvania’s firearms preemption law to further ensure firearm and ammunition laws are consistent throughout the state.

Here are both form letters to Senators and Representatives on NRA-ILA site at the Link above.

Text of Email to Senators:

As your constituent, I respectfully urge you to support Senate Bill 1330.

Do this! It only takes a few seconds using the link provided.

Unfortunately, my local rep is the execrable statist bloomberg puppet Santarsiero, who is one of the malignant gun control zealots in the state, so I know how he will vote (I sent the letter to him anyway). But he is in the minority, and we need to push the republican reps to get this over the top.

Bombs away. I'll be on the phone here after I'm out of this meeting. All the employees will call too.

Sent and I emailed to a bunch of people---my Rep is Steve the-TURD-o so I don't expect anything from him.

Out-of-stater, with one parent's family in PA.

Don't fully understand PA legislative process.

Is there still a chance for this?

Seems as of today, a winning vote in PA Senate.

Is it too late for PA House?
