    The best and only thing we can do is call Meekhof's office as much as possible. People underestimate powerful people's patience for being badgered. Light that phone up and make the call. Tie up the aides and people answering the senators phone with calls supporting the bill.

    Most importantly ask questions and take your time, you should shoot for 5 min of dialogue per phone call and call twice a week, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE IN HIS DISTRICT. They will wear down and do what's necessary to get the dang phone to stop ringing. 100 people calling twice a week for 10 min total is 1000 minutes a week that office will spend answering questions about this one piece of legislation. Get a buddy to make the calls.

    The Senate is gone until the twelfth. No love for the gun owners, yet. Call your senator's office and see if they are having any coffee hours or public events so you can talk to them face to face.

    With the budget passed there are no more excuses, time for them to get this this bill through committee and on Snyder's desk. I think he will let it sit, neither signing it nor vetoing it which would be a win for gun owners.

    Phone calls to your Senator are good. Face to face dialogue is golden.

    No. They won't be back until September. Now is the time to hunt down your Senator. If they aren't a lame duck, they'll be making public appearances.

    No…it passed the House, transferred to the Senate where it was sent to the Committee of Government Operations back in June and has sat ever since.
