Action today on HR 38 by the US House of Representatives Judiciary Committee:

Introduced  01/03/2017
Bill   H.R. 38
Author  Rep. Hudson
Title   Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act
Action   Recorded Vote
Result   Passed as Amended (19-11)

Next it has to go to the floor for a full House vote I believe, then if passed it goes to the US Senate. Is that right?

The House bill could be voted on by the full House as soon as next week. (But even if it is not, there's a lot of pressure to vote on it before Jan 1st.)

Then the version sitting before the Senate Judiciary Cmte will have to start moving. If/when it passes out of committee, then it will face a floor vote in the Senate. That, IMO, is where the real "knock down, drag out" fight will take place. The antis will throw EVERYTHING they can against us to keep the bill from passing the Senate. If/when it does get voted on (perhaps as late as summer so that anti votes will take place close to the Nov elections), if it passes, it goes to Trump's desk for his (election promised) signature!

If it doesn't pass the Senate, the NRA will use those votes to replace antis/RINOs in both the House and Senate. FWIW, the Dems have 23 seats to defend vs 8 for the Repubs: that's almost 3x as many seats!

I read on Bearing Arms that 2 Gun bills are coming out of committee. National Reciprocity and update to the federal background check system. I don't think we'll see anything this year but next year could be a whole different story. We need to hammer our reps in Wash until they get tiered of hearing from us.

Maybe if we organize a march on Dover or something like that to get their attention maybe we can convince them to do something "FOR US"

I think its time to raise hell boys.

Hope this has  a snowball effect:

Just a heads up here. I sent one of those tell your congressman to support the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act to Chris Coons. He thanked me for sharing my thoughts on the matter. Gave me some BS on how he as a self-proclaimed communist, that he believes that the right to bear arms is protected by the second amendment. Then Mr Coons says "I Oppose the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act because I believe federally imposed Concealed carry laws interfere with a states decisions on matters of public safety".

1.      I didn't ask him what he thought, I asked him to support the CCW reciprocity Act. Excuse me Mr Coons, your job is to do what I/we people of
         Delaware ask you to do.

2.       Why would Concealed Carry Reciprocity have an effect on a state's public safety other than making it safer. An armed society is a safe society.

3.       Another thing Mr. Coons points out is a sensible gun law in one state would not be sensible in another. Mr. Coons there is no such thing as a   
          sensible gun law in any state. I, you, nor anyone else can name one gun law that prevented or stopped a criminal from killing someone.

       A gun is a tool, no different than a hammer or a screwdriver. Its use is solely dependent upon the person using it. Nobody needs a gun to kill, they just need a reason.

Thank You for allowing me to rant. I feel much better now.

I to sent a email letter to our Representative. I got a form letter back so fast, no human could have read my letter that fast. Same old Bull feces they always do. It will surprise me if any Delaware Politician votes yes on a National Reciprocity bill. Delaware Politicians suck.

I called Lisa Blunt Rochester's DC office AND emailed her.

Doubt it will help, but worth a try. 
(NO, I didn't hit my head on anything this morning)

I'm so fed up with Delaware's Democrat Monacracy that I hesitate to even participate in an attempt to contact them. Coons, Carney, and Rochester are all part of the problem, not the answer or cure. But as long as the keep the money distributed from downstate to upstate, the morons up there will keep on sucking up the swill and voting them back in office.

Just finished watching the C-Span channel Judiciary committee hearing on HR 38. Several Democrats put on vary dramatic performances in protest of, and amendments to the bill, but all were voted down by a good majority.
I believe next the bill goes to the full House floor for discussion and vote. I believe that will happen tomorrow (Wednesday).
