***************
The Legislature's session ends Thursday at midnight. They still are working on many bills, but Utah Shooting Sports Council needs your help to push them to work on two important bills, and there are other less important bills pending as well. Seven good gun bills have already passed. Details on the USSC website http://UtahShootingSports.com
***************
ACTION STEP ONE
Email or FAX the draft email below (or one similar to it using your own words) to all members of the House Rules Committee listed below. This is needed to get Rep. Paul Ray's HB 424 passed to fix the problem with some government agencies trying to harass gun owners over the mere sight of a legally carried gun by claiming it constitutes "disorderly conduct."
Send to all of these: wharper@utah.gov; bird@utah.gov; biskupski@utah.gov; dclark@utah.gov; mikemorley@utah.gov; ryanwilcox@utah.gov; wiley@utah.gov; cwimmer@utah.gov; billwright@utah.gov
DRAFT EMAIL OR FAX
Subject- Ensure HB 424 Firearms Revisions by Rep. Paul Ray gets considered
Dear House Rules Committee members: I urge you to ensure that HB 424 Firearms Revisions by Rep. Paul Ray gets to the floor in time for passage by both chambers this session. This bill is urgently needed to stop harassment of lawful gun owners by some who wrongly claim that the mere sight of a gun somehow constitutes "disorderly conduct."

***************
ACTION STEP TWO
Contact your Representative by email, phone or FAX and ask them to vote AGAINST HB 129 Firearms Modifications by Rep. Carl Wimmer unless the amendments made in Committee are removed. This was an excellent "Constitutional Carry" bill eliminating the need for permission slips for law abiding citizens to carry legal self defense weapons. However, a committee added a convoluted notification scheme that negatively impacts existing laws regarding legal possession of firearms. If the amendments are removed, USSC strongly favors the bill.
Email, call or FAX this message to YOUR representative (see next item if you need to find their name and email address:
DRAFT EMAIL OR FAX
Subject- Vote NO on HB 129 Firearms Modifications unless returned to original form
Dear Representative
I must regretfully request that you vote AGAINST Rep. Wimmer's HB 129 Firearms Modifications bill (sometimes called "Constitutional Carry") unless the amendments made in Committee are removed. If the amendments are removed, then I would strongly urge you to vote FOR this bill. This bill would make Utah's weapons laws similar to the current provisions in Vermont, Alaska and Arizona, and currently being advanced in a dozen others.
