*** GUN BAN FOLLOWUP ***
Thanks to all of you
members and your friends who contacted your State Senators and Representatives
and POLITELY told them to VOTE NO on the pending
bills that would destroy your rights to legally own most of the currently legal
firearms within the State of Illinois.
Keep up the good work. Please
remember to make periodic POLITE and FRIENDLY written/telephonic
reminders to them about your position on proposed firearms related issues. Their local telephone numbers are listed in
your telephone book. Their office can
give you their Springfield telephone number and email address.
Web sites for additional
information and details relating to firearms ownership related bills are:
