***May Meeting DATE CHANGE***
Due to a scheduling conflict with the
Rock Falls Library, our meeting
has been changed to
6:30pm, Wednesday, May 29th
at the Rock Falls Public Library
Guest Speaker: David Martindale Topic: Agenda 21
AGENDA 21--conspiracy theory or global conspiracy fact?
Words like sustainable development, smart growth, resilient cities, regional visioning, alternative energy, conservation easements, development rights, and comprehensive planning...are all warm-fuzzy terms meant to make you feel good about signing onto the green-bandwagon and are all part of the United Nation's Agenda 21. Join us to learn all about the ways this global agenda is influencing the decisions being made by local, state and federal government agencies, how it is affecting your daily life, and why you should be concerned!!!!
CCW: Viable Proposal on the Table
*** Vote scheduled for FRIDAY, 5/24 ***
(ISRA CCW Alert) After many years of working to advance a Right to Carry bill, there is a viable proposal on the table. This bill, SB 2193, sponsored by Representative Brandon Phelps, is not a perfect bill but it does have several good points, for example:
Shall issue
Statewide pre-emption of all gun laws
Commercially available training
Vehicles will be a safe haven
However, the bill does call for:
16 hours of training, although some previous training will count toward those hours
$150.00 license fee, for five years
Carry on mass transportation prohibited
This bill, if passed, will bring Right to Carry to Illinois,
but due to the restrictions in the bill we (ISRA) are neutral on the bill.
While many people have been involved in this effort, Representative Brandon Phelps has demonstrated superior leadership and should be commended for his resolve.
