Concentrate all fire (pun intended) on 317 232 9414!!! Give HB 1077 a hearing and a vote!!
What I'm hearing - Nothing is going to get thru the IN senate. That is, nothing that conservatives want. The gov doesn't want anything to pass; of the senators seeking re-election, almost none are being challenged in a primary so they have no real reason to listen to 'we the people'. I will be seeing Liz Brown on Thursday, but do not expect it to matter. Do make calls; every one helps send the message.
We've opened up another front in the House.
SB 143 (Self Defense) had it's first reading in the House and was assigned to Courts and Criminal Code Committee.
It's really crunch time on the House-side. Wendy McNamara is the committee chair. It's time to let her know we're here.
Link below the draft email.
Representative,
I am writing to encourage your support of SB 143, Self Defense. Authored by Senators Doriot, Baldwin, Michael Young, and co-authored by Senators Garten, Koch, Bohacek, Freeman, Sandlin, Busch, Crane, and Tomes. This bill is sponsored by Representatives Smaltz, Lucas, Teshka, and Bartels
SB 143 corrects a longstanding problem that resulted from an Indiana Appeals Court decision.
This bill does not change when reasonable use of force includes deadly force. Likewise, SB 143 does not make it legal to point a firearm at someone without the imminent threat of unlawful force. What SB 143 does do is accurately define deadly force.
Over 20 years ago, the Indiana Appeals Court ruled in Nantz v State that the act of pointing a firearm was deadly force. Inference and possibility (the basis of the Nantz decision) are not the same as deadly force by any stretch of the imagination. SB 143 simply specifies that pointing a firearm is reasonable force in a self-defense or arrest situation, correcting over 20 years of judicial overreach.
SB 143 is a very short bill, changing very little in current Indiana Code. Better defining reasonable force will be of great help to Hoosiers in self-defense situations, and afterwards. I’m sure I can count on your support with this important legislation.
Thank you,

Bump 2 !!
Should we give poor Abigail a break and stop calling this number? BA-HAHAHAHA!! No.
I called the 1 -800 number, as soon As I said Senator Brown they forwarded me to Abigail’s voicemail. I got the feeling a few people are calling…
No break for Abigail!! Also 1-800-382-9467, multiple directions!
I picture her sitting there, going through voicemail, with a spreadsheet open. The spreadsheet has bill numbers down the left side and two columns, "pro" and "con".
Maybe someone got creative and set it up so that whichever column was greater than 50% of the total would light up green and the other one red, I don't know. I hope that all of this that we're writing is being appreciated by those receiving it.
Blessings,
Bill
I picture her there hitting delete every time she hears anything about this bill
More e-mails sent, to busy to call today.
Neither bill is on the February 9th agenda. I am REALLY getting p***** off at the Republican Party leadership. Do they want the votes of constitutionalists, 2A supporters, and any of the newly awakened gun owners who realized in 2020 that the Gov might not be there to save them? There performance is just pitifully weak.

This looks like a slow-roll on both bills. We keep it up with emails and calls, that's what we can do from here.
One more week to get this one a hearing. 1-800-382-9841, Representative McNamara needs some phone messages.We've opened up another front in the House.

Hello Abigail, it's me again!! OK don't do that, it sounds creepy. But definitely call and leave a message supporting HB 1077: give it a hearing and a vote.
Well, the Senate and House lines are bound up with a wait time, but Abigail's voice mail was still able to record a voice mail.
I did get through to a legislative intern in the House who took my message for Representative Schaibley (my Rep) who is Vice Chair of the Courts and Criminal Code committee handling SB143.
