maybe a drop box?
Ok I have 108 page attachment in PDF. How do I post it?
You need to call Andi and ask her about that one. That's 108x35 copies. I would definitely call her and give her a heads up if your going to submit that as testimony. Is it for just 1 bill??? That's 3,780 pages.
It's a copy of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit,
San Francisco, CA 02/12/14 court case

I'd think if it was just one person's submission in support of the Haddaway bill, it would get attention!

HAND DELIVERED
House Judiciary Committee
101 House Office Building
Annapolis, Maryland 21401
Dear Committee Members:
I am writing you today to oppose this legislation. GPS tracking of firearms has already been studied in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and in the city of Chicago, Illinois. While the technology does exist to use GPS to track firearm locations, it has many drawbacks, disadvantages, and shortcomings.
For GPS to work, the receiver must have a line of sight to four or more transmitting GPS satellites. There are many locations, such as inside large buildings, in basements and tunnels, in outdoor canyons and valleys, and even on city streets surrounded by skyscrapers where GPS receivers do not function. If you’ve ever tried using the GPS in your car to navigate the streets of New York City or driven through the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel with a GPS unit you have experienced this.
The GPS unit in the firearm must be powered by a battery. It is trivial for a criminal who doesn’t want to be tracked to remove or just not recharge the battery, rendering the device inoperable.
Using GPS to track the movements of law-abiding citizens also opens many questions relating to privacy, especially in this day and age with the NSA being what it is. Is the aim of mandating the use of these devices to track the movements of law-abiding citizens as they hunt, shoot a round of skeet, or earn the Boy Scout Marksmanship merit badge at summer camp? I certainly hope not.
Maryland is a state with many problems, the least of which are spending and budgetary problems. This issue has been researched by three different legislatures and all three decided to pass on the technology. This bill paints a mental picture of three men with sticks hitting a horse which is no longer among the living. I see no reason for Maryland to waste taxpayer money trying to find a way for “the Free State” to further erode the privacy of its law-abiding citizens.
Kind regards,
personally I do not think they read it. It is there for impressions. Someone might want to call Andi and get specific info.

ok, how do you make an attachment to send to smigels office? i am not exactly computer literate, i just fumble around here. i think i can do word or office, i think i have those programs.
More than one person sending in written testimony using the CA9.
Guys even a "my name is X and I support / oppose this bill" works.
It takes like 5 mins to do this. Burn that copier up!!
