 Dear Erick, Last week, 16 Republican Senators joined Harry Reid, Chuck Schumer, and Dianne Feinstein to vote against Rand Paul's pro-gun filibuster. So gun control is on the Senate floor - and votes could begin as early as tomorrow. Senators Rand Paul and Mike Lee are going to drag out the debate as long as possible, and they have also vowed to filibuster Reid's vote on final passage of the bill. This gives us more time to turn the heat up on the Senate. If Campaign for Liberty members and supporters can generate enough pressure to convince 9 of the 16 Senators who voted wrong last week to Stand With Rand on final passage, we have a shot at stopping this monster in the Senate. Campaign for Liberty flooded the Senate today with over 21,000 “Stand With Rand” Fax Petitions from concerned Americans like you demanding their Senators join Rand Paul’s filibuster. If you signed your “Stand With Rand” Fax Petition, thank you. If you haven’t yet signed your Petition, please do so right away so C4L can fax it to your Senators. Once you’ve signed your Petition, please take a moment to call your Senators and DEMAND they stand with Rand Paul and Mike Lee and vote against gun control at every opportunity. Sen. Michael Bennet: (202) 224-5852 Sen. Mark Udall: (202) 224-5941 As I told you Friday, Republican Senator Pat "Benedict" Toomey (R-PA) has teamed up with Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) and introduced a so-called "compromise" gun control bill. But the reality is that this bill is even more dangerous than Dianne Feinstein's so-called "Assault Weapons Ban." I've heard from my inside sources that Toomey's bill was actually written by Chuck Schumer himself. Senator Toomey's bill would ban virtually all private gun sales, restrict the Second Amendment freedoms of travelers, limit the Second Amendment freedoms of anyone who, at any time in their lives, sought the help of a mental health professional, undermine state sovereignty, and set the stage for full-scale national gun registration. The bill is so bad it's even supported by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's "Mayors Against Illegal Guns." Of course, other so-called "compromises" have started to rear their ugly heads, including a so-called "Constructive Republican Alternative Proposal." And since the ball is in Harry Reid's court, there's really no way to know exactly how this fight will go down. But one thing remains certain - this battle is set to come down to the wire, and may be won or lost by just one or two votes. So please be sure to contact your U.S. Senators and INSIST they vote against every anti-gun bill or amendment that comes up for a vote. If enough Americans make their voices heard, you and I have a shot at winning this critical fight. In Liberty,  John Tate President P.S. Please chip in $10 or $20 to help Campaign for Liberty alert as many Americans as possible to this critical fight before it's too late. |
