Illinois Representative To Hold Town Hall Meeting On Concealed Carry Tomorrow!

Tuesday, August 30, 2011

Plan to Attend and Ensure Your Voice Is Heard!

Tomorrow, Illinois Representative La Shawn Ford (D-8) will be holding a Town Hall meeting on the issue of concealed carry of handguns. Representative Ford has extended an invitation to both opponents and supporters of concealed carry in Illinois to attend so that an open and public discussion may be held on this issue. It is critical that supporters of self-defense attend and speak at this town hall meeting.

With the concealed carry bill failing passage by a narrow margin this past session, every new pro-gun vote is incredibly important. Please take this opportunity to attend and respectfully urge Representative Ford to support concealed carry in Illinois!

This meeting will be held tomorrow from 6 PM to 8 PM at 4630 W. Augusta, Chicago. For more information, please call (773) 378 -5902.
