This bill was supposed to come up in committee at 2pm on Sunday Jan 6 but they claim it has been put aside for the 97th General Assembly and it will have to wait until the 98th.
There is chatter on the ISRA facebook (https://www.facebook.com/ISRAgroup) page that this may come up again tomorrow at 11am despite what was said today.
As reported earlier, the House version of the Cullerton Gun Grab Bill was supposed to be debated before the House Judiciary Committee I at 2:00 PM today. The Chairman of the committee convened the committee, announced that there would be no gun bills debated for the rest of the session, then adjourned.
This bill is incredibly worrisome and anyone living in this fine state of Illinois should be greatly concerned. Read for yourself the details here. (http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/fulltext.asp?DocName=09700SB2899ham001&GA=97&SessionId=84&DocTypeId=SB&LegID=63457&DocNum=2899&GAID=11&Session)
If it concerns you as much as it did me, get on the phone and call your legislators like I did. Send mail, do whatever it takes. These guys will stop at nothing. We must do the same.
There is a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bDJW97xBAE) of the bill being set aside but I don't trust them for a minute.
It seems like out collective calling efforts from the weekend were successful in filling every voicemail box in Springfield. I know I had a hard time reaching anyone but the fight isn't over.
Pick up the phones and make the call to save your rights.
While you are at it you'll want to include HB815 and HB1263 in you list of things you want to see voted down. There is a crazy long list of stuff coming our way!!
