Well i emailed my representive about a month or so ago and finally i recevied a letter back from him in the mail. (i figured he had read my email and didnt give two thoughts to it.) well i was wrong i recevied an actual letter today back from him this is what he wrote:
Dear Mr. L
Thank you for contacting me to express your opposition on H.R. 1022, The Assault Weapons Ban and Law Enforcement Protection Act. I always appreciate hearing from constituents and greatly benefit from knowing your views.
As a United States Representative, I took an oath to "support and defend" the Constitution, and this includes the Second Amendment. That's why I have sponsored legislation, the "Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act," which will prohibit frivolous lawsuits against the firearms industry, and why I have consistently Voted for legislation that protects our right to "keep and bear arms." I am proud that this is now public law.
As you may be aware, H.R. 1022 was introduced February 13, 2007 by representative Carolyn McCarthy. This anti-second amendment legislation proposes to reinstate for ten years the ineffective assault weapons ban that would once again restrict the lawful purchase of a firearm. I firmly believe that law-abiding Americans should be allowed to possess firearms to protect there property, themselves and their loved ones. Please be assured I will continue my strong defense of the Second Amendment.
Again, thank you for contacting me regarding this issue. If i can be of further assistance in this or any other matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. With kindest regards, I am,
Sincerely,
Cliff Stearns
US Representative
im not sure if he knows the full extent of HR 1022 though, but still cool that he wrote me back.
