These seems to be a continuity of names appearing on anti gun legislation in the state legislature. Dan Frankel of Pittsburgh, is one such, for others, I suggest that those of you with Internet Access, at home or anywhere else have a look at House Bill 1730, the Pennsylvania version of Smart Gun Legislation. Frankel is one of the sponsors, the names of others appear on the bill, which happily seems to be going nowhere.
In any event, all House Members are standing for re-election in November, and some might have PRIMARY ELECTION OPPOSITION, where they could be defeated, effectively removing them from office. The small effort expended in obtaining the names of these legislators might well be effort well spent.
U.S. Senator Arlen Spector appears to have some primary opposition, in the person of U.S. Representative Pat Toomey. It might prove worth while to find out where Toomey stands on issues of concern to you all, I assume that gun control would be one such. Remember, if your will, that Senator Spector voted for, and also bragged about his support for original enactment of the Assault Weapons Ban, scheduled to "sun set" in mid September.
To hear him talk about that, one has to listen with extreme care to hear anything about it, he is now singing a different tune. Re this, one wonders as to the following. Has the Senator changed his position, or has he merely replaced a worn out record, with a newer version? Readers might try to elicit a sentient response from Spector on that point. My best wishes for good luck, if you try.
As I said at the outset, the primaries will be upon us before long.
