LB430 UPDATE 5/13/09: LB430 Passes 45-3; thank the Senators
DanClrk51:
Dear Senators,
Senator Mark Christensen has introduced AM1105 to LB430. This amendment would make an exception for Concealed Handgun Permit holders to keep their concealed handgun locked in their vehicle when parked on school/college/university property.
As a Concealed Handgun Permit holder and university student, I travel not only to the university but to other places as well throughout the day. To require me to not have my concealed handgun in my vehicle while it is parked on university property is unfair and unreasonable since I have already gone through an extensive background check and have received training in the law and firearms use. It would be ridiculous to require me to have to go home to drop off my concealed handgun everytime I planned on going to the University for classes or errands.
Therefore, I would ask for your support of Senator Christensen's AM1105 to LB430. Please vote for AM1105 and for passage of LB430 into law. Thank you for considering this bill.

AM1105 is just what we needed. I hope it goes through. I've written my senator, Bill Avery, in the recent past regarding LB430, and I plan to write him regarding AM1105. Just one question...do you folks just right to your senator, or do you do all senators and/or committees?
Thanks,
Fly

Fly, each has their own flavor as to whom they will write. Just my opinion, but I write to each individual Senator rather than a "group" e-mail...take a little longer, but it makes it personal when one opens the e-mail with their personal salutation identified at the beginning. I even send to those who I know are ding-bats (Council, McGill as examples...especially the latter one since she is my area's representative) just so they know that there are quite a few folks out there who support the bill....otherwise the ding-bats will only hear from their fellow ding-bats. If we don't take the time to do action and speak up, then ding-bats come out on top....check out our Fed govt!!! The ding-bats came out of the walls to vote more so than folks with full brain functions. But that's just my opinion and modus operandum. Cut and paste works wonders....beats the old days of typing things out and snail mailing.
Aldo:
I wrote to both Sen Christensen and Sen Fulton regarding this AM 1105. So far I have only heard back from Sen Fulton:
* Dear Senator Fulton,
On the NE Legislature website today I noticed that Senator Christensen filed a pending amendment (AM 1105) to LB 430. Am I reading/interpreting it correctly that a NE CHP holder will be allowed to bring their handgun onto a school parking lot as long as it is locked in a compartment? And, as a university employee, will I as a NE CHP holder be able to keep my CCW locked in the car's lockbox while I go into my place of employment on campus for the day?
This is great news if I am interpreting it correctly! Do you feel that this amendment will have the support of the other Senators? Should I and my colleagues continue to write to NE Senators to request their support of this amendment?
Thank you in advance for taking the time to read my e-mail and address my questions. I look forward to your response!
Regards,

* XYXXYXXY,
That's the intent. I haven't read his amendment yet, but he (Sen Christensen) is trying to clarify a little more within the law...as we have the votes to do so we think. I'll review the amendment, but I spoke with Sen Christensen, and this is his intention.

Oh heck...there's only 49 senators. Maybe I will just send each of them an individual note.
Thanks,
