Call/email your D Representatives RIGHT NOW and demand a NO VOTE ON SB 5078. Email/call the WEAKEST D Representatives TODAY!
The opposition just sent out an email and text begging the anti-gunners to call their reps and beg to pass the magazine ban bill, SB 5078. Let’s DROWN THEM OUT!
We need you to call your D Representatives ASAP because this bill WILL be heard today, probably at the last possible moment.
This is SUPER important. Your D Representatives HAVE to take your call and note your opposition. The weakest Ds don’t HAVE to listen, but they’ll know just how big of a risk their position is in November. They’re hoping we’ll forget. We assure you, we as gun owners will do everything in our power to vote them out if they pass this bill.
As we watch what is happening in Ukraine, what better way to spend our time than fighting to make sure that we’re not placed in the same situation they are by politicians serving their own agendas? The anti-gun politicians are advancing a malicious party agenda. We’re fighting to preserve our right to defend our lives and the lives of our loved ones.
Law Enforcement has come out and said that this ban will NOT have any impact on crime at all.
As one of our panelists said in her testimony:
“The laws of the legislature are not the laws of the streets, and each step that this body takes to make it more difficult for myself and other women to obtain and keep their firearms only makes the jobs of the real criminal element easier.”

Step 2: Call/email your House Representative and require they vote NO on SB 5078 banning magazines
Call and leave a very simple message “Please vote NO on bill SB 5078.” That’s it. You don’t have to be super knowledgeable or have the perfect talking points.
Send an email to the same Representatives, saying, “My name is First Last, and I live in your district at <address>. I urge you to vote NO on bill SB 5078.”

Body: My name is Joe Public. I urge you to vote NAY, DO NOT PASS on SB 5078. This is my single greatest issue. I will actively campaign against you and all legislators if you vote for this bill. I’ll go door to door, make calls, send texts, actively promote on social media, and contribute to any campaign running against you.
