All need to e-mail/call their applicable representatives and state senators. I already e-mailed mine. My DEMOCRAT rep. agrees that Hawaii already has among the strictest gun laws in the nation and that he would need to be persuaded to vote for this SB 219 AW Ban or any other gun control. People need to vote and voice their concerns to the politicians, some of them actually may listen.
For those who wanted to see the exact message:
"Thank you for your message conveying your opposition to SB 219, which proposes banning assault-style weapons. My feeling is that Hawaii's firearms laws are already among the most restrictive in the nation and I would have to be persuaded of the need to impose any more restrictions on gun owners.
Mahalo for sharing your thoughts and please don't hesitate to do so in the future. Would you like to be added to my email list to receive community updates and legislative news?
