Zuko94 14 Posted February 5, 2017 I was looking over the HR 38 BILL and see not a single representative from NJ who is supporting this bill. New York has 6. Does NJ suck this bad? Does NJ not have that many gun owners who vote? im not happy with Joseph Kyrillos, Amy Handlin or Declan O'scanlon. I can not get over the fact NY has 6 reps for HR 38.

Gunnz 49 Posted February 6, 2017 As a ex New Yorker from upstate, most of the State is not in favor of the Safe Act, and in most counties it is relatively easy to get a carry permit. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you wondering why they are not supporting a a bill in the US House of Representatives? They are representatives in the NJ legislature not the US Congress Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJ sucks that bad! The PRNJ has a long standing tradition of being anti gun. Many gun owners here are FUDDs or are brainwashed to believe things can never change here. I believe things can change here but from a Federal level or SCOTUS ruling. Not at the state level unless the FUDDs can be convinced that they too are in danger of loosing their rights! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brucin 923 Posted February 6, 2017 I just checked and the congresswomen who represents the district where my other residence in NY is, has signed on as a sponsor. Perhaps I need to change my voter registration to the congressional district that better represents me. I sent Rodney a letter and have not heard a peep.

Indianajonze 379 Posted February 7, 2017 scott garrett would likely have supported it, but we ran him out of town and replaced him with the guy who wrote bill and hillary clinton's speeches. he also was guilty of breaking federal law during the election, yet there he is, in what is considered to be the republican stronghold of the state. stay classy, new jersey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jcc 6 Posted February 7, 2017 I just checked and the congresswomen who represents the district where my other residence in NY is, has signed on as a sponsor. Perhaps I need to change my voter registration to the congressional district that better represents me. I sent Rodney a letter and have not heard a peep. The congressman from my district where I own a residence in NYS is also a co-sponsor. My congressman here in NJ, District 7 is a republican and according to his website, pro-2A. I am writing him a letter urging him to co-sponsor and support the Bill. Anyone else in District 7 also should. Its probably useless with a democrat congressman, but with a republican, its worth a shot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M1Thumb 30 Posted February 8, 2017 Contacting your representative is futile. It's a meaningless act that is designed merely to appease the people by leading them to believe they did something constructive. Everybody on the hill is laughing at us.
