Dear Senator Hatch,
As a registered Republican & financial contributor to the RNC, I emphatically ask you to support the passage of S.1805: The Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, (formerly known as S.659), and I implore you to make sure that NO restrictive amendments are attached to this bill. Any attempt to use this fine piece of legislation as a vehicle to renew or strengthen the "assault weapons" ban or to close the mythical "gun show loophole" should be resisted with all of your political will.
I also ask you to urge your fellow Senators to pass an undiluted and unamended version of S.1805. Freedom loving Americans are paying attention to this legislative struggle & we will not tolerate the continued erosion and infringement of our right to bear arms.
Please help protect our heritage of firearm ownership by protecting firearm manufacturers from unfounded lawsuits and please resist any and all attempts to attach restrictive, unnecessary, and unwanted amendments to this bill.
Thank you for your time.
Joe Blow
As a registered voter, I strongly urge you to support the passage of S.1805: The Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, (previously known as S.659). I must also stress that NO restrictive amendments should be attached to this bill. Attempts to use this legislation as a means of re-authorizing the "assault weapons" ban, or as a way to enact any new gun control laws should be resisted with all of your political will & influence.
Please understand that compromise is neither desirable, nor possible in this circumstance. The "assault weapons" ban is an infringement of our right to bear arms, and it needs to be cast upon the ash heap of failed ideas. Any back room negotiations or last minute concessions that result in the extension of the ban will be seen as a betrayal of the Republican Party’s ideals and core constituency.
Thus, I once again implore you to lend your full & considerable support to the passage of an undiluted and unamended version of S.1805.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
As a voting, tax paying citizen, I request that you do everything in your power to help pass an unamended version of S.1805. The Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, (previously known as S.659) is an extremely important and sensible piece of legislation, and it needs to be enacted without any restrictive amendments attached.
I remind you that the Republican Party currently controls the White House, Senate, and House of Representatives, in large part due to the support and efforts of America’s gun owners. Any attempts to renew or strengthen the so-called "Assault Weapons" ban should be sent down to defeat, and all calls for new, onerous gun control measures should fall on deaf ears. Concerned citizens are paying attention to this legislative battle, and its outcome will influence the future voting habits of freedom loving Americans.
Hence, I once again urge you to turn your back on the Clinton era "Assault Weapons" ban, & to embrace our tradition of gun ownership by protecting firearm manufacturers from frivolous lawsuits. Please resist any and all attempts to attach restrictive and unwarranted amendments to S.1805.
Thank you.
Dear Senator XXXXX,
I strongly urge you to support S.1805: "The Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act" (formerly referenced as S.659) without ANY onerous gun control amendments attached.
As a law abiding gun owner and registered voter, S.1805 and the expiration of the "Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994" (also known as the 1994 "Assault Weapons" Ban) are high priorities for me. The outcome of these issues will have a very strong influence on my opinion of which political party best represents my interests.
Please understand that frivolous and constitutionally questionable amendments to S.1805 will certainly have a negative impact on the decision of millions of people at the polls this November. Freedom loving Americans are paying attention to this legislative struggle & we will not tolerate the continued erosion and infringement of our right to bear arms.
Once again, I strongly urge you to take an unambiguous stand in support of S.1805, and I respectfully ask that it be passed without any unwarranted & restrictive amendments.
Most sincerely,
