Mike Madigan has quite a lineup ready for Illinois' residents this Wednesday. Despite government's failure in Florida to protect those kids from a savage sicko, Madigan and the Chicago Democrat Machine want to saddle Prairie State Residents with more gun control. Here is the tentative lineup.
UPDATE: Below, links to the bills, along with updated descriptions.
These bill are required to have an hour's notice before a quick hearing to send them to the Illinois House floor. Given that Speaker Madigan has promoted this "Gun Day Wednesday", the bills will make it onto the House floor most expeditiously.
Here's the lineup we know about:
House Bill 1465 – Michelle Mussman – For under 21s: Gun, ammo ban. Semi-auto firearm ban. .50 caliber rifle and ammo ban. Standard capacity magazine ban. New Age Limits for purchasing firearms. Because 18- and 19-year-olds fighting for our nation shouldn't be trusted with sporting rifles when home on leave.
House Bill 1467 – Marty Moyland – A narrowly defined "Bump Stock" and "Trigger Crank" ban. A new bump stock ban, probably narrowly crafted to avoid the humiliating defeat his earlier ball took last fall. Looking dispassionately at bump stocks and the current political climate, I think this one has the greatest likelihood of passage. And it's not a hill worth dying upon.
House Bill 1468 – John Carroll – 3-day waiting period for black guns. No sales of black guns to non-residents at gun shows. Extended waiting period. Waiting periods keep victims waiting, not criminals.
House Bill 1469 – Dan Burke – Magazine ban. No grandfathering. Ban on body armor for civilians. Prohibit possession of body armor and "high caliber" ammunition. Because good guys shouldn't be able to protect themselves from bad guys' bullets!
But wait, there's more!
Things are VERY fluid at the moment. Obviously Michael Madigan wants to take attention away from sexual harassment scandals and other issues under the Capitol dome by using gun control as a big shiny distraction.
Two big bills they want to pass Wednesday include the gun dealer licensing scheme (HB-1657) and the trailer bill. But they've also floated bans on semi-automatic rifles, standard capacity magazines (no surprises there, right?), but also hiking FOID renewals to as much as $100 or $125. (There's probably not a lot of support for that, but again things are fluid at the moment.)

CALL NOW.
No, we don't have committee assignments yet… and when the amendments to the above noted shell bills get posted, you'll have only minutes to file witness slips. It's far more important to just call your legislators, especially your Illinois House members. Tell them to vote NO on any gun control bills!
And spread this far and wide on your social media or via email to friends and family.
Vote No to all these so called bills people wont forget in 2018 what you do now.
This right here, besides the corruption, and the taxes is the reason I took my family, and my tax dollars and 4 votes to a different state. Think these laws will stop gun crime in Chicago? No, it will not.
VOTE NO ON THESE BILLS !!!!
Most politicians and madigan belong in jail
just more ways to punish law abiding citizens! Chicago should form it's own little state up in the corner and leave the rest of Illinois to itself!
I have read where the Dems think their gun dealer bill will raise the cost of a gun by $300.
So does this mean gang members will have to pay more too? (sarcasm off)
The only thing this bill will do is create a Black Market for guns.
Heck before its over we may have a nice civil war on our hands.
How wonderful it is to live in a pi$$ hole state like Illinois
That guy is as crooked as the day is long, 100% sure on that.
all it takes is a savy computer person to prove that
We need to make calls but we also need to start building a 5-10 program.
If you dont know what a 5-10 program is then do a search
We need more fun control. No bump stocks,no ar-15, you must be 21 to by a gun or ammunition.
We need more gun control.
You were right the first time Carl. No more fun cause your a cranky old soul. No fun, no rights, no liberty in your book. Socialist, communist thought at it's finest Carl. Why do you dispise freedom Carl? Why?
Disband the NRA
Disband the DNC. That would be one of the most life saving measures we could take.
Vote Yes on these bills. Slow these gun huggers down!!!
More Gun Control laws will do nothing. What is needed is more Criminal Control. Murder a cop like has been done recently. Wack job murders school children. Automatic death penalty. No appeals. Lights out. Done
I personaly would love to read Michale Madigans Obit in the morning news. He's been one of the most corrupt leaders in Illinois in the last 100 years. He make Barack Obama look like a Saint, which we all know could never happen.
I want some of that high caliber ammo.
