Initiative 1094 Repeal 1639 progress update

As you're all aware, the roll out of this grassroots repeal effort has had a few hiccups. This wasn't our rodeo, but we see our fellow Washington citizens struggling and we have stepped in to remedy the situation.

We have taken the steps to set up the Political Action Committee (PAC) #F1639. This is required to be compliant with Washington election law and prevent legal issues for the Initiative organizers. We will not seek individual donations to help cover the cost, as that's a huge administrative headache, this is our gift to the citizens of Washington. Our free online 1639 class was the warm up gift.

We have ordered 20,000 signature sheets, 17"x22", doubled sided as required by Washington law. If its anything other than that size, printed front and back, it will be REJECTED by the Secretary of State's office. The size is difficult and expensive to print.

Printing is complete at this time, sheets will be delivered late on Monday.

Logistics:

We have several primary distribution sites across the state. They will have the sheets by TUESDAY if all goes well. Pay attention to the social feeds and we'll share announces through our social page as well. We will update this list as shop confirm they are collecting signatures.

Each location will have petitions to sign, or to pick up copies for you to use, hopefully you will be able to register voters at these locations as well.

Ranges, gunshops, gunclubs, or other groups wanting to distribute signature sheets should pick up sheets at these locations. We will maintain a post of gun shops that have sheets available for distribution or signing. Sheets will not be mailed or shipped, the PDF won't be shared any longer either as too many wrong sized sheets are already in circulation, a tremendous waste of time and energy...as well as lost voters.

Please do not call, email or message these shops about information (its overwhelming), but follow their social feeds for information.

VOTERS:
WA registered voters ONLY.

Do not sign more than one sheet, it will result in both signatures being tossed out.

Signature and voter information MUST be legible.

Completed sheets, return to the distribution points or mail per the instructions on the signature sheets.

Signatures must be on a sheet that meets all of the Washington election laws, for size, content, readability and properly marked (unlike the Yes on 1639 campaign).

Please like and share this post. This is all grassroots effort, the citizens are standing up and fighting back. We need everyone on board to gather 300,000 signatures before December 27th. It won't be easy, but its not that hard either.

Potential signature gathering locations, private locations will require permission from the property owner:
Sporting events
Holiday parties
Gun shows
Grocery stores
Church services
Rallies
Public spaces/Parks/Busy Sidewalks

Be respectful and polite collecting signatures, but please make the effort.

We learned a lot with our NO on 1639 campaign and hope those lessons will help this effort here. Now gear up, get work done and #F1639.

FACEBOOK GROUP #F1639-Repeal 1639 will be the Social page to watch for current information too.
 
Dan,
1st of all, HUGE TY for doing what you're doing. Bad side being I need to cancel/ ammend my Giant Nickel ad to get this new info into the public. I hope to hell I can make it happen before the print date.

^^ Great work Dan.

Looks like some good shops that deserve some patronage as well, spend a couple bucks while you're there.

We finally had the time to stop by Countyline Shooting Sports in McKenna today to put our names on the list of those who want this bubblegum repealed.

Thanks to all who are putting in the effort and an especially big thanks to @Sporting Systems for all that you're doing.

I signed at my FFL. Brown Box Ammo Guy in down town Puyallup and grabbed a couple of blank ones to take to the Gun Show in Centralia this weekend and then the following weekend in Puyallup for the WAC show.
