I was messing with my settings and turned off email alerts for MO and have missed most everything in the thread for the last week or so. I'll get emails sent to the committee members. I have not received further replies to any of my other emails.
You rock Shawn!! Great work on this. I'll get some more support sent out in the next few days.

Team,
We had 3 people in support of this bill. President of the "Missouri Family Network". Turns out he knows the family. Whitney O'Daniel (NRA-Government Relations) and I. After talking with Representative Largent and O'Daniel, both were of the opinion that it will pass the house, but the fight will be in the Senate.
Thanks to those that sent emails and for future reference, you can supply an email and have it submitted for witness testimony, or at least that is what they did on another bill.
Wish we could have gotten this introduced in the Senate with its own version, but I think we can at least get a floor vote in the house and kick it over and see what happens. I follow up with additional replies, as I find out more info with tracking.
Please continue to follow up with your representatives if you haven't already.
Thanks.

Thanks Shawn. I'm still not sure, should I email the committee members or is it to late for that?
Should I email my reps (house and senate) now or wait on the senate?

Hey Lancer, I'm not sure when they are going to vote on it, today was the public hearing to give testimony. I would follow up with the committee members and let them know you would like to see it given a "Do Pass". Then it should show up on the calendar for a floor vote. It doesn't hurt to give a shout out to your rep either. Once it passes the house, then we can follow up with those in the Senate. Also, please follow up with an email to Largent and thank him for sponsoring it and that you support its passage. You could simply copy him when sending an email to your rep.
HB875 Remember, there is no need to talk about OC...just what it says on the HB page:
Requires political subdivisions to regulate firearms by adopting ordinances consistent with the weapons offenses and with the justification defense in state law.

I emailed the committee members, my house rep and sent a thanks to Largent. I can't wait to hear back from some.
Shawn, since you were there, what was the general consensus about the bill? Do you think it really has a chance this year?

| Was anyone form the missouricarry.com group in attendance? Their leadership seems to be in opposition of OC in MO for some reason.

Lancers...I do have a good feeling about this. Good questions from the committee members and now its up to us to get the support generated to make sure its passed. Lets make sure the 3rd time is the charm!

902,
They have their own agenda, they say they support OC, but they won't if it gets in the way of their agenda. They show up in support of their bills, send emails and go visit their Reps and Senators. Its hard to get people to drive to Jeff just to talk for 15 minutes (6-8 hr drive both ways for some) and it says a lot to the committees when people give testimony.
I really want HB875 passed, because we should first and foremost obey the constitution, before we start worrying about changing permits from 5 to 6 years or saying you can have it on parking lots. This is my opinion. They are good people pushing what they want.

| It looks like they tacked it on. It's in the perfected version of the bill. The news stories are focusing on the age lowering and the campus carry, and ignoring the state preemption part, but it looks like a grand slam if it passes house again (and senate).

Looks like the combining of firearms bills caused my rep to vote NO yesterday. I just received a letter in the mail responding to my email. She said she agreed with HB 875, but had concerns about HB 645, regarding campus carry. So now that they put them together, she voted NO.
