Completely agree Derek! Re-reading my post I could have had a different tone there. I am in full support of what you're doing here and thank you for it; we need more people like you taking positive action on initiatives like this.

Good luck tomorrow, we're all rooting you on. Can't wait to help you in Washington when you're ready.

Your support means a lot. Especially if you have experience working with kids. I need your help.

I really need your help. The machine has gotten involved and could stop us in our tracks. Please watch the video.

Many NWFA members (including myself) don't have FB accounts. If possible, I would suggest mirroring the FB info (except the video, that works) in this thread.

I just watched the video. I don't have, and you don't need, a FB account to do so.

I wrote in my post that the video works, that's not the problem. The problem is that the video mentions links and additional info to support the bill, and that info may not be accessible w/o a FB account.

@LethalLovebird what are the next steps after tomorrow's hearing?

I sent in my written testimony at 1:10pm today. It was after the noon deadline but I received an email at 5pm that said in part:
"It has been received and will be distributed to the committee members, posted online on the Oregon Legislative Information System (OLIS) and included in the public record."

Which Democrat Senators on Edu Committee are most likely to vote for this bill?

How'd you feel they received your testimony?...Curious.

Way better than the other side. We took the wind out of their sails early and then the committee turned on them. It was beautiful.

I was really disgusted that Ceasefire et. al. prioritized stopping a bill that might remotely be pro-rights over children's safety and possibly saving lives. But I guess this is nothing new for them.

And don't forget The League of Women Voters

Saw that as well for both Ceasefire/League of Women Voters. Anti-education is what they are. And people need to be reminded of that.

Some of the IP43 petitioners were also against education when a similar gun safety education petition was submitted.

Edit: Paul Kemp (Safe Storage Law advocate) was also against the bill. Seems only his bill, and the nearly non-existent MomsDemand token BESmart program is the best solution, in his mind...

Overall, Great job on the testimony and progress! It seems to be showing up well on social media.

Still moving forward, that's good news, especially when one considers which party is the supermajority...

Paul Kemp is a vindictive POS.

Of course they do
