Once you are signed in, you can leave and come back

I could swear the shell casing senate bill was scheduled for 3/12, but 3/17 is indeed what is says on mgaleg.

Listing updated to reflect this.

If you get a chance, jot down their names if they say them in testimony. I'd be interested to see if it's nothing more than a rebranding of some of the same ol' faces from other groups.

Couldn't stay and chat because I was in a hurry, but when I dropped off my written testimony there were quite a few people (recognizable faces) from our side getting organized and milling around the committee lobby. Looks like there will be a decent turnout.

Will probably do the same this time. Of course, the chair will abide them and hear their bill first.

Will someone please bring up the remaining list of stringent requirements (training, background check, fingerprinting, etc.) even if self defense is the reason for applying to counter the mayor of baltimore's statement opposing the SB100.

She obviously has no clue what the rest of the process is and thinks guns will just "fall into the wrong hands" if it passes.
