Done!  I've emailed all of the Reps for my area, as well as the state senator for this area, and expressed my thoughts to them on this bill.  Thanks for the heads up! 

Guys, unless you're ready to pay a lot of silly taxes and do a lot of paperwork just to buy ammo (so they can track it), you need to let them know what you want them to do.

Where do you get the e-mails for the reps in your area?  I'll definitely want to e-mail them.

Here is what I got back from one of or Reps.

 this legislation is federal legislation.  You should contact Congressman Geoff Davis at 202/225-3465 or Senator Jim Bunning at 202/224-4343 or Senator Mitch McConnell at 202/224-2541.  Thanks for sending me your message and I hope our Congressmen and Senators can help you


We need to call these phone numbers ad tell them to defeat this.

I've heard back from two of my people in my area, one was a Representative and the other was my state Senator's office (not the Senator herself though). 

The message that the Senator's assistant left on my machine is that she recieved my email and researched the bill, and that it was voted down back in March?  Hmm, I'll have to call her tomorrow and tell you that the copy of the bill I saw had a November date on it. 

On the other side, my local state representative personally emailed  me back today and and said that he opposes encoding ammunition, regulating the guns in the bill, the whole she-bang and thanked me for writing in to tell him that I was opposed as well.  He didn't mention anything about the bill not being a current issue up for vote in the State houses.....

After I talk to the senator's office tomorrow, I'll post what they tell me.
