Alert from the Brady Bunch follows:
"ACTION ALERT: CALL YOUR SENATORS TO PROTECT GUN VICTIMS' RIGHTS
Please contact your U.S. Senators on Wednesday, April 6, 2005, and ask them to Oppose S. 397. The Senate could vote on the gun lobby's immunity bill very soon. We need your help!
STEP 1: MAKE YOUR CALLS, Wednesday morning, between 9am and 1pm ET.
Call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121. (Or click here to get your Senators’ direct numbers.)
STEP 2: TELL YOUR SENATORS TO OPPOSE S. 397.
STEP 3: SPREAD THE WORD: Forward this action alert to your e-address books!
S. 397 is dangerous special interest legislation that would take away the legal rights of gun violence victims and give sweeping legal immunity to the gun industry -- immunity that no other industry enjoys.
Last year the National Rifle Association and extremists in the gun lobby urged Congress to pass this bill but thanks to your efforts, this awful legislation was defeated. We can do it again, but we need your help!
Congress must reject this special interest scheme again. The gun industry should be subject to the same legal rules as all other American businesses. And the courthouse doors must remain open to legitimate victims harmed by the dangerous and irresponsible actions of firearm manufacturers and sellers.
Justice for gun victims must be preserved. To make an impressive showing we need everyone to help out. On Wednesday, April 6, please call your U.S. Senators and tell them not to close the courthouse doors on gun violence victims!
STEP 1: MAKE YOUR CALLS
On Wednesday, April 6, call the Capitol Switchboard at 202-224-3121 and ask to be connected with your U.S. Senators. (You will have to call twice to get both Senators.) Or click here to get your Senators’ direct numbers.
Call between the hours of 9am and 1pm ET so we can make the greatest impact.
For regions other than Eastern Time, that's:
Central: 8am - Noon | Mountain: 7am - 11am | Pacific: 6am - 10am
STEP 2: TELL YOUR SENATORS TO OPPOSE S. 397
STEP 3: SPREAD THE WORD
Enlist your family and friends to help on April 6. Please forward this action alert to your e-address books!
Thank you for your help in defeating this dangerous legislation."
I subscribe to their list to keep tabs on 'em. Please publish this announcement far and wide on all the pro 2A sites you know, and maybe we can jam the switchboards with our side of the story.
