Of course you are right; many Democrats do support 2A rights.

Unfortunately most Democrat politicians seem to be out of synch with the majority on this issue. And her aide did say she didn't support the bill. So I should have said “Unfortunately she is a Democrat Politician”.

Unfortunately my Senator is Wendy Davis (D). I called her office and her aide Marshall was very polite, took my contact information, and noted I was in support of the bill. He said he had not talked to the senator about this bill in some time but at the time she had not been in support as written. He mentioned that it had just had hearings. I told him that it had come out of committee yesterday and that it was now awaiting a vote to reach the senate floor. I told him I felt this was an important bill for the safety of students on campus, that it deserved a floor vote by the full senate, I would appreciate her vote to send it to the floor, and as a constituent I would be watching closely how Senator Davis voted.

Since she is a Democrat I was likely wasting my time but we can't give up just because things look bad.

Keep calling!!

Got through to everyone on both committee’s and my local reps, except Solomon (He's going to have a very full vm). All were very pleasant. Hopefully they will really pass the message along and we can get this done. Several of them mentioned they were getting a lot of calls to the committee members.

Without this call for action I feel we would definitely lose this one, maybe now we have a small chance. Thanks Chas for all you do.

Called everyone on the list. Now to work on my local reps.
