Arrogant Anti-Gun Legislators Derailing PA Legislative Process

Date: 09/27/2016

I try not to burden you with a lot of e-mails but this one is significant.  As you may know we have been working to advance pro-gun legislation in Harrisburg and are on the cusp of two of our issues being addressed, finally!

These bills involve preemption (HB 2258 & SB 1330) and semi-auto firearms for hunting (SB 737) and are all keyed up and ready to go EXCEPT we are being held hostage by anti-gunners and money and ‘apathy’ among our ranks!

We are being blocked by a concerted effort from anti-gun groups through their minions of evil (anti-gun legislators) in a historic show of abuse of the political process.  HB 2258 has had 242 amendments filed AGAINST it and this is a record.  SB 737 has had 19 amendments filed against it.  The end goal is to force leadership to pull the bills from consideration.

We are being "terrorized by a small group of misfits" in and outside of the legislature who are abusing the process to stymie legislation that has overwhelming support. Republican Leadership AND Democrat Leadership need to be united in opposition to these tactics! Contact information, including phone ‘and’ e-mail address, for Republican and Democrat leadership is available at the links below:

I’m laying this in your laps because gun owners are faced with an ugly reality!  IF we do not get more of our friends and family involved and calling their legislators and leadership of BOTH parties then I fear our ability to get ANYTHING passed will be impossible.

What is even more critical is that the NEXT step for them is to force anti-gun legislation to be passed or these political whores will shut down work on other bills.

I’m sorry but I have done everything I can think of and have been warning you of this coming evolution of the political process for a while.  Well it is HERE now.  Either get involved now or plan on PA becoming New Jersey in the not too distant future and prepare to surrender your firearms because what is going on now is ONLY going to get worse!

Sorry for the bad news but I’m NOT going to sugar coat the dire situation we are faced with!

Thank you for considering this important message!

Yours in Freedom,

Kim Stolfer
