2022 Legislative Session Thread

[jwamplerusa]

Based on KF's summary, I think we're waiting on it to finished being reviewed by the Attorney General (whose office is a big pro on this bill, and the senate committee abused that opportunity to try to embarrass and attack his office).

Like, Timjoebillybob said, it seems like the House Speaker and Senate President have signed it: http://iga.in.gov/legislative/2022/bills/house/1296

The 2A Project posted this link (It'll be listed as HEA 1296):
https://www.in.gov/gov/newsroom/2022-bill-watch/

We can see when it hits the governor's desk and when he has to sign it by, too.

@JEBland, thank you for the link!

May that the Hoosier state RAPIDLY joins the rest of these states who recognize the RIGHT to keep and bear arms without first seeking permission from the state;

Alabama joins Georgia, 20 other states in getting rid of concealed carry permits

Alabama residents will no longer be required to hold a permit to conceal and carry a handgun in the state after Gov. Kay Ivey (R) on Thursday signed a bill effectuating the change into law.The bill, which was passed along party lines with major Republican support and Democrat opposition, takes...

Good question… @El Conquistador

Sorry I have been out of town taking a much needed break after this session.
To answer your question, I have a service that I pay for to track bills, not sure if there is a version for the public other than in.gov to track.
I just looked at HB1296 and it doesn’t show the speaker of the house or the President Pro Tem have signed it yet. They have to sign before it goes to the Governor. This is not unusual for a delay on signing. I will keep watch and post what I see.

Thank you!

Are you looking at the iga.in.gov site or a secret squirrel site? I see signed by both on the iga.in site

I just checked my site again and it shows last activity is 3/8/22 and still no signatures. I guess I am paying to much for this service.

I've noticed that too. Sometimes Firefox works, sometimes gotta use Edge. Different computer (same OS and browser) makes a difference too.

We are getting SO CLOSE!! A few more days of phone calls and clicking the TELL Eric link. It's not time to buy cigars (Monte Cristo maybe?) and good bourbon (hhhhhmmmm) yet.


MONTGOMERY – Governor Kay Ivey on March 10th signed House Bill 272, known as the constitutional carry bill, into law, defending law abiding Alabamians’ Second Amendment rights.

“Unlike states who are doing everything in their power to make it harder for law abiding citizens, Alabama is reaffirming our commitment to defending our Second Amendment rights,” said Governor Ivey. “I have always stood up for the rights of law abiding gunowners, and I am proud to do that again today.”

In April 2019 at the NRA Annual Meeting of Members you said, “Removing any and all barriers for lawful carry in our state is significant for the many Hoosier gun owners who want to protect themselves and others.”

In 2019 you sounded a lot like Governor Ivey did last week.

Sign HB 1296 into law.

Ask Eric

www.in.gov

People on FB putting up Governors phone # and as of 3 minutes ago people saying every time they call its busy....so maybe lots of calls keeping it that way. Either way he goes I hope this RINO's career is over.

Have to agree with you on that, this isn't the first issue he's been sketchy on...

For better or worse, I kept my note a little simpler:

"Please sign HB 1296

Sir, Hoosiers are watching, more now than ever. If you have future political aspirations, do the right thing. I've never been politically active, only a solid conservative vote. Now that's not enough. I WILL become active and work against you if you don't do the right thing and uphold the oath you took to the Constitution.

Respectfully,"

Done...again.

 

[KellyinAvon]

Called and TOLD Eric to support and sign HB 1296

 

[tbhausen]

Done:

“I am writing to demand that you sign HB 1296 into law.

In April 2019 at the NRA Annual Meeting of Members you said, “Removing any and all barriers for lawful carry in our state is significant for the many Hoosier gun owners who want to protect themselves and others.”

We are keenly aware of this recent promise and are watching closely to see how faithful you are in fulfilling it. Second Amendment infringements at the Federal level always rank near the top when it comes to gravest concerns of conservative Hoosier voters like myself. Federal officials (and those seeking Federal office) will do well to keep this in mind when it comes to gaining and retaining our support as constituents.

Your time to serve the interests of Hoosiers like myself is rapidly coming to a close. How can we count on you to do so as a United States Senator if we can’t count on you as our Governor?”

 

[tbhausen]

Just sharpened that up a bit and resent it…

Sent one this morning, and I am plaigerizing @tbhausen without remorse to send another.
