[QUOTE="Wonderbunny, post: 1486638, member: 7480"] HB1796 This is Rep. Tibbs Open Carry Referendum bill. It would put licensed open carry on the November, 2012 ballot. We have several problems with this bill. 1) We dont vote on Constitutional rights. 2) Taxpayer money would be used to pay for an election to vote on a Constitutional right. 3) We hired 149 men and women to go to Oklahoma City to represent us and to vote on issues that impact our state. Instead of doing that job, if they pass this bill they would be shirking their job (that we hired them to do) back onto those who hired them. They need to do their job and vote on the issue instead of voting to collectively shirk the job they were hired to do back on to those who hired them to do the job. Call or email your Representative (contact information is below) and tell them you expect them to strip the referendum language and the licensing requirement out of the bill and pass open carry. Tell them to quit infringing on our right to bear arms. HB2130 This is not a gun bill, but it has implications of which gun owners need to be aware. This bill implements sections of ObamaCare in Oklahoma. The people of this state voted overwhelmingly last year to opt out of ObamaCare, which contains several provisions that are nothing more than backdoor attempts to register guns and gun owners. Not to mention, there are several provisions which would infringe upon the God-given Second Amendment rights of certain individuals. HB2130 would implement the insurance exchanges that are provided for in ObamaCare. The talking points of proponents of this bill include claims that the Heritage Foundation said that these exchanges are okay. If that is true, perhaps we need to rethink whether we should listen to anything the Heritage Foundation says. The bill would also take control of the exchanges away from the elected State Insurance Commissioner and give it to an appointed bureaucrat that does not answer to the people of the state. It is a bad bill and needs to be defeated. Please call or email your Representative and remind them that we voted against ObamaCare last year and that you expect them to vote this measure down.
