Fellow ISRPA Members,
As of right now the “contact my office” function on the Indiana General Assembly website is down. It is time to go to old-school phone calls.
The main call center (800-382-9841) and is open 0815-1645 M-F closed holidays. This is always a good option to get a message to a legislator. The more messages left on the desk the better.
The direct voicemail numbers for the representatives are working.
Looking at the calendars and schedule: we need to concentrate the phone calls (for now) on two committee chairs.
Ethan Manning, Public Policy Chair:
– HB 1170 Elimination of Gun Free Zones
– Does not eliminate all GFZ’s, but addresses four areas where Executive Branch agencies are overstepping the Legislature
– Agencies include: Dept of Natural Resources/Indiana Dept of Administration/State Fair Commission/State
Universities
– Direct phone number for voicemail: 317-232-9711. Message: “Please schedule HB 1170 for a hearing.”
Jake Teshka, Financial Institutions Chair:
– HB 1074 Firearms Financial Transactions
– Prohibits discrimination of firearms retailers and individuals by financial institutions
Direct phone number for voicemail: 317-232-9650. Message: Please schedule HB 1074 for a hearing.”
As always: be polite, be professional. We don’t know who will be handling the voicemails and we always want 2nd Amendment supporters in the best possible light.
In Liberty,
Kelly Myers
Co-Director, Government Affairs
