Thank you, everyone who has gotten involved and mailed those who needed to be mailed. The committee hearing is tomorrow morning at 9AM! If you haven't yet contacted your legislators, the time is NOW!

Blessings,
Bill

I've got a question about the workings of the committee. I see there are 4 conferees and 10 advisors. I would assume that the conferees are the ones that vote and the advisors are the ones that work out any language tweaks. (But I'm am just guessing). Is it advisable to send letters to both groups?

I think I got these right. Here are the legislators and their email accounts to help ease your letter writing activities:

Sen. Jim Tomes s49@iga.in.gov
Sen. Richard Young s47@iga.in.gov
Rep. Sean Eberhart h57@iga.in.gov
Rep. Linda Lawson H1@iga.in.gov

Sen. Brandt Hershman s7@iga.in.gov
Sen. Lindel Hume s47@iga.in.gov
Sen. Brent Steele s44@iga.in.gov
Rep. Jud McMillin H68@iga.in.gov
Rep. Tom Dermody H20@iga.in.gov
Rep. Alan Morrison H42@iga.in.gov
Rep. Jerry Torr H39@iga.in.gov
Rep. Terri Austin H36@iga.in.gov
Rep. Ryan Dvorak H8@iga.in.gov
Rep. Jim Lucas H69@iga.in.gov

Can someone keep us updated on this tomorrow? The girlfriend has a doctor's appointment, so I won't be able to keep up on it.

GUNS ARE THE RIGHT

We have a right to our guns... But you need to review what a "quality" post is before posting more, mmmkay? Thanks!

Blessings,

Just sent an email from IMAGC facebook to the 2 representatives in question as a last followup. Didn't have time to do much tweaking to the wording though.

Anybody got a link to hear and/or watch this morning's session? Would like to (try to) follow what's going on.

Go to indiana general assembly site. Look to the right on homepage and you will see meetings scheduled. Just click on the camera icon next to the meeting.

About 3 min to meeting time- getting error message and cannot connect

It doesn't come on until they start; there were errors last week on SB 169 conf committee too. I plan to listen; if no errors.

...

Thanks 87IROC .(SP?) ... better sent than not.

 

[Bill of Rights]

Video errors... Nothing on camera

 

[asipes]

Anyone able to watch? I just keep getting "The video stream is not available at this moment". Any chance they just haven't started yet, or do we not get to listen in today? I'm a newbie at this stuff...

 

[brotherbill3]

I am beginning to think this room does not have video; this is where SB 169 was discussed last week as well. Very frustrating.
And there are no 'official' minutes or transcipts available either. I should have walked over. but I really have work I need to be doing. GAH.
Stupid job. :smile:

 

[poppy]

I can get video of hb1002 and hb1361 but no sb229. Perhaps you are right, bill. No video setup in the room.

 

[asipes]

So, how/when do you anticipate us knowing the outcome of this meeting?

 

[poppy]

Bill will probably post info as soon as he receives it.

 

[brotherbill3]

I wrote to "support contact us" at the IGA ... got this back:

"The Senate isn't showing any of their conf committee."

LAME. - then why post the link. Jerks..

 

[Bill of Rights]

OK! Just got word...

The bill had some minor changes, which I've been told are good, and nothing bad. LSA (the guys who do the actual writing) now have to work those changes in, and the hope is to finalize it this afternoon.

I would give more detail, but I have none to give. Cards are being played VERY close to the vest at this time. The House and Senate both have to approve the changes since they were made in committee, but once made, they will be public.
