The bills<br \/>\nput forward in the IL Senate are NOT dead. They are still alive until<br \/>\nthe new legislature is sworn in on Wednesday\u2026 they could vote as they<br \/>\nclean out their desks.<br \/> Keep the calls and emails coming.  They are having an effect and will be the difference between your guns being banned or not.<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Thirdpower at Days of Our Trailers has this warning along with some comments from Illinois legislators:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<br \/>\n<i><b>NYET!! NINE!!! NADA!!! NOPE!!!<\/b><\/p>\n<p>These bills are NOT dead. They are just being held off so the Chicago-crats can try and strong arm enough votes before next Wednesday. Got that?  NEXT Wednesday is when the bills are dead, not before.<\/p>\n<p>KEEP making those calls and informing fellow gun owners.  They WILL attempt to bring them up again as soon as they think they can get them through, the same way they play the midnight sessions game to get their annual pay raises.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Those of you living in Illinois need to keep up the pressure on your state representatives and senators. Be polite but call them every day. Don&#8217;t let them think you&#8217;ve let your guard down.<\/p>\n<p><b>UPDATE: <\/b>While all the action so far has been in the Illinois State Senate, Todd Vandermyde let me know this morning that his sources in the State House tell him that Gov. Pat Quinn and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel will be pushing similar bans in the House. The House reconvenes for its lame duck session at 5pm on Sunday.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is too soon to let our guard down in Illinois over the range, AWB, and magazine ban bills.&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":1,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[2811,45,317,1058],"class_list":["post-2717","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-gun-bans","tag-gun-control","tag-illinois","tag-magazines-bans"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2717","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2717"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2717\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8671,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2717\/revisions\/8671"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2717"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2717"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2717"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
