More Attacks on the Second Amendment on the Horizon in

Illinois!

The 95th Illinois General Assembly begins session next

week, and we can expect another busy year of defending

our Right to Keep and Bear Arms. While last November's

elections were an overall success, anti-gun Governor Rod

Blagojevich (D) was reelected, along with many legislators

who have long anti-gun records, so we anticipate a

renewed assault on the Second Amendment in Springfield.

On Wednesday, January 3, one of the most ardent

supporters of the gun ban crusade in Illinois, Chicago

Mayor Richard Daley (D), revealed his anti-gun fervor has

not waned one iota in 17 years.

Governor Granholm Signs Michigan Emergency Powers

Protection Act!

On Thursday, December 28, Governor Jennifer Granholm

(D) signed the Emergency Powers Protection Act.

Consisting of HB6363 and HB6364, the legislation

sponsored by State Representative Scott Hummel (R-93)

will establish new laws preventing local governments from

confiscating lawfully-owned firearms during a declared

state of emergency, as we witnessed in New Orleans

following Hurricane Katrina.
