Cullerton Plans to Push Bad Carry Bill
In State Senate Tuesday!
Call Your State Senator Immediately!
In an attempt to head off a Right to Carry bill that would preempt all gun laws in the state, President of the Senate John Cullerton has plans to amend HB183 (Senate Amendment #4), push it through committee, rush a floor vote, then send it back to the House for concurrence.
Cullerton is going use language that will omit safe harbor provisions (carry in your vehicle), ban carry in restaurants, increase penalties for carrying while intoxicated to a class A misdemeanor, and whittle down preemption to only apply to carrying.
In an act of desperation to get the bill passed, he is going to require only 30 votes instead of the usual super majority of 36. It is possible we could see an amendment late tonight with a committee hearing Tuesday morning.
