I called Mark and went through the operator she said just a minute he's going back to his desk then she transfered me and it went to voice mail. I left a polite voice mail and then sent an email.

Called John and Mark with CWA left voicemails and sent emails......sounds like they are trying to get their position straight. Put money on it they will change the neutral stance.

Thanks to Paul with the NRA for pointing this out.

Their stance doesn't appear to be well thought out. Looks like it may backfire and they'll be doing some damage control.

Still no answer.........I'm sure they are back peddling and pissed at the NRA for telling everyone the truth.

The funny thing if you ask them if they support the bill Mark w/CWA will send a note to the affect they don't support the bill but he will say nothing about being neutral which if your neutral you are part of the problem.

The bill was amended on 9/3 to extend the compliance date to 2019. It will be read again on the Senate floor today so call your Senator!!

Just got the call from the Pres. of CWA they are putting a letter together to be posted TODAY opposing AB 711. Send them an email thanking them for there opposition to the bill.

Good job guys!!!

See standing up for your rights can work!!!
