Dear Senator/Representative XXXXXXXXXXXXX,

As your voting constituent, I am writing today asking that you review and hopefully sign onto the proposed legislation by Gun Owners Action League (GOAL). The 2013 legislation is laid out below; please note the deadline for signing onto legislation is 2/1/2013.

At the same time, I must ask that you NOT support Governor Patrick's or Representative Linsky’s proposed legislation on Gun Control. There is nothing in either bill which will prevent the next Newtown or have an impact on inner city crime. There is however, plenty of items which will further restrict and criminalize law abiding gun owners in MA. I would hope that you won't vote to put me, or any other law abiding citizen in jail for lawfully purchasing an already heavily regulated item more than once a month, or for being in possession of a 15 round magazine which is in common use and legal in most of our states.

There are many other points of contention in both proposals, I won't take up your time going through them line by line, instead I would urge you to speak with Jim Wallace at GOAL about making reforms which will help instead of criminalize MA gun owners.
