The Supreme Court of the United States has, once more, declined to dismiss the New York Rifle and Pistol Association v. New York City case. New York City claims that because they adjusted their ordinance, the case is moot. These jerk municipalities are always trying to pull that one. They will double-cross you every time. Thankfully, the SCOTUS declined the request for dismissal and the case will be heard on December 2, 2019.
Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) and other liberal Democrat Senators have threatened to pack the court. They would love to raise the SCOTUS to 13 or 15 Justices and overwhelm the stricter constitutionalists on the court. Just what we don't need. Shenanigans like this is why every gun owner better be at battle stations from now through the 2020 elections.
The Illinois State Rifle Association will sponsor a scaled down version of IGOLD on Tuesday, October 29th. The venue for the meeting is the Howlett Building Auditorium which only holds about 500 people. The purpose of this event is to stop in and see your State Senator and ask them to vote NO on SB1966. If it passes the Senate, the Governor will surely sign it. As long as you are there, take time to go see your State Representative. If you are unable to be present, please call your State Senator and State Representative from your home or work.
Agenda for Lobby Day - Tuesday, October 29, 2019:
9:00 am Meet at the Howlett Building Auditorium
9:30 am Pledge of Allegiance
9:35 am Legislative Update
9:45 am Overview of our goal
10:00 am Briefing on lobbying the Legislators
10:15 am Head to Capitol to lobby Senators
(If time permits, please lobby your Representative)
