Action items – bills now critical

Last chance for several bills.

I have prepared a review of where all our bills are (I’ll send it today), but there is action pending tomorrow on several bills that NEEDS YOU PRIORITY ATTENTION. Here’s the deal:

HJ 26, the Montana states rights and sovereignty resolution will have its public hearing before the House Judiciary Committee tomorrow, Monday 2/23. Send messages to Judiciary members asking them to support HJ 26. (Hint: This is important to protect Montanans from federal gun control, i.e., Blair Holt Firearms Eventual Confiscation Act).

HB 246, Montana-made guns, has been sent to the House Appropriations Committee (maybe an attempt to kill it). Send messages to House Appropriations Committee members asking them to approve HB 246.

HB 427, repeal archaic suppressor law, was voted down by the House on Second Reading. Contact House members and ask them to revive and pass HB 427.

SB 183, to get Montana control of wolves, will be up in the next couple of days before the full Senate. Contact Senate members and ask them to support SB 183.

HJ 14, supporting guns in National Parks, will be on Second Reading on the House floor tomorrow (Monday). Contact House members and ask them to support HJ 14.

REASON FOR URGENCY NOW. This coming Friday is “Transmittal,” the day by which all House bills must be approved and transmitted to the Senate (except appropriations of money) and all Senate bills to the House, OR THEY ARE DEAD! We have ONLY THIS LAST WEEK to persuade legislators to act on these critical bills!

If you need more information about any of these bills, get it HERE.

Act now! Please! All of these bills could die a final death this week without your help. If you want good gun and hunting laws in Montana, you have to become a player – you must commit some time at critical points to contact legislators. Your contacts DO make a difference.

Thanks loads,
