It's critical that you contact the committee members NOW! Don't believe anyone who says it's dead. That's what they said about Brady & our semi-auto ban in CA....before they passed them.

I got these by calling the House and Senate Judiciary committees. The two differences between the versions posted earlier are that Meztenbaum is the 5th ranking majority Senator NOT Heflin and the FAX number for Hughes was incorrect. (The correct number is below.) You should be able to read this directly into most spreadsheets, word processors, databases and fax programs. Please focus letters on these guys ASAP. It's not too late to stop the semi-auto and 10-round-magazine bans, but your action is needed immediately. Call and fax today to save your own rights! Get others involved before it's too late! __ st=state abbr d=district # (--=statewide office) c=chamber (H=House, S=Senate) first_name,last_name,st,d,c,voice,fax,local Jack,Brooks,TX,9,H,(202)225-6565,(202)225-1584, Don,Edwards,CA,16,H,(202)225-3072,(202)225-9460, William,Hughes,NJ,2,H,(202)225-6572,(202)225-8530, Charles E.,Schumer,NY,9,H,(202)225-6616,(202)225-4183, John,Conyers,MI,14,H,(202)225-5126,(202)225-0072, Michael L.,Synar,OK,2,H,(202)225-2701,(202)225-2796, Carlos J.,Moorhead,CA,27,H,(202)225-4176,(202)226-1279, Henry,Hyde,IL,6,H,(202)225-4561,(202)225-1166,(708)832-5950 F.
