Colorado: Next Week is Your Last Chance to Stop Dangerous Anti-Gun Bills from Becoming Law On Monday, March 4, the Senate State, Veterans, and Military Affairs Committee and Senate Judiciary Committee will hear several anti-gun bills. If passed and enacted into law, these bills will stand as the mo...

February 26, 2013 Dear XXXXXX: Last week, I was pleased to visit schools and meet with educators across the Second District to discuss school safety. I enjoyed the opportunity to hear from superintendents, teachers, students, and other stakeholders about the issues facing them, including ways to kee...

Don't assume that -- open the floodgates on our congress reps. Make them feel the heat from back home!

Several folks challenged that figure last night - and today... b Here is a great article you can abstract and email to your senator: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/jan/30/the-gun-show-loophole-myth I was surprised to find out when I met my senator in person that he had in fact...

Awesome. If metro DFLers are on the fence, that is a very good sign.

I went ahead and compiled a list of the outstate DFLers here.

I was personally told by pro-gun legislators yesterday that Outstate Democrats -- anyone outside the 494 loop -- are vulnerable on gun rights issues and are our best chance at defeating more gun control. I have compiled a list for your easy viewing (and advocacy): DISTRICT NAME PARTY EMAIL PHONE OFF...

Why isnt anyone challenging the 40% statistic? And I mean in front of the hearings? Make them prove their statistics and the methodology behind them. Dont just quote the Brady Bunch, show the number of people surveyed, as well as other demographics and the specific questions asked... These legislat...

It has been disappointing to see so many police chiefs take the side of the gun grabbers at the MN House and Senate. I assume there is a silent majority who oppose them, but for whatever reason they are not making their voices heard. Thank you for standing with us. Now keep on the pressure -- it was...

Anyone outside the 494 loop.

Outstate Democrats can be persuaded and are our best chance. Contact your senators ! --- Dear Senator ___________, ( lookup ) Please review the included photos. These pictures were taken yesterday, Feb 21st outside Room 15 at the Capitol. These are only some of the hundreds who showed up 2 hours ear...

I attended the Capitol hearings at noon today. It was obvious that S.F. 458, requiring universal background checks is the endgame for gun-grabbing politicians. How do I know this? They brought out the BIG GUNS to testify: ⋅ Mayor R.T. Rybak ⋅ Son of mass shooting victim Reuven Ra...

Many senators and representatives outside of the hearing committees have no idea what kind of response these bills are generating in the halls below them. I want to include pictures of the crowds of people standing in line (virtually all pro-gun) in letters to these senators, to add weight to our le...
