There is a 2nd Amendment rally scheduled for Jan. 31 at the Capitol in Frankfort. Time is from 9am to 3pm. This rally is sponsored by Constitutional Kentucky. There will be speakers from NRA, KC3 and others. If you missed the one on the 7th of Jan. this is your chance to make your voice heard by our legislators.This rally should be bigger than the one held earlier this month. We will be on the front steps of the Capitol Annex.
If you can't make the rally, you can still make your voice heard. There is a "legislative message line" open. The number is 1-800-372-7181 and it is open 8-4:30 Monday thru Friday. It only takes a minute to leave a message for your Senator or Representative. First, be polite, the operators a nice people and are not responsible for any complaints you may have. They will ask for your name and address, so they will know who your legislator is. You can then tell them who you want to leave a message for. You can leave a message for one single person or any combination of people.
If you have a particular bill you want to comment on, give them a bill number. Something like, "I oppose Senate Bill 89." or "I oppose all Red Flag laws" and "I support HR 45. Just substitute SB for Senate bills. These messages are delivered and counted. If you don't tell them what you want don't complain when you don't get it.
The most effective way to influence your legislator is face to face. That can be at a rally like this one, at a meeting in his office or in your hometown, on the street or grocery store or his place of business. These people are your neighbors. Talk to them. Call them at home. If you have to, go to their house and knock on the door. They work for us. Be polite. The next most effective way to contact them is by telephone at their offices or at home or local business. Next best is by hand written letter, then comes email(they all have email listed on the LRC website). Moms Demand Action and all the other anti-gun people are calling and writing every day. If that is all they hear, that is how they will vote. If you know your legislators have a Facebook or Twitter account, you can use that, too but many of them are not on social media
