My rep is Jeanne Kohl-Welles and since she doesn't listen to her constituents, I called all 8 judiciary members.

To my surprise, 6 out of the 8 were answered within a few rings. That's amazing to me, and I plan on calling from now on.

I got "we will definitely oppose 6396" from:
Bob McCaslin
Mike Carrell
James Hargrove
Pam Roach

I got answering machines from:
Randy Gordon
Debbie Regala

I got "fine, we will add your name to the list, thanks goodbye" from my very irrational Kohl-Welles. And lastly, I was surprised to find that Adam Klines office was willing/interested in taking notes on my reasoning.

It's worth noting that I waited until today to make these calls because I thought it would be a hassle. All together, it took me less than 6 minutes to make all 8 calls and voice my opinion. It was amazingly painless to do it and I feel great about myself as a citizen for doing it. Keep calling folks, and make sure those who are opposing the bill feel appreciated!
