Kansas Homebrew Legislation

#1 Post by toolman » Sun Feb 02, 2014 1:18 pm

the KS vote for homebrew legislation changes could happen this coming week, you need to contact your
reps and senators if you want to make this happen. Dont put it off, do it today.

here is how to find out your ks rep and senator email address using your home address
http://openkansas.org/

here is what you need to put in your email
Time to have the group start calls, and activate any legislative alert system we have access to, to contact any House member they know and others, as well as the members of the Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee, where the bill will go if/when passed in the House, to support and vote for House Substitute for HB 2223 soon to be above the line on General Orders.
your email should include
Please support House Sub. for HB 2223 when it appears above the line for floor debate and action.
Please ask their fellow legislators to vote for this bill,
To contact Senators they know to support the bill when it arrives there
.
Please ask them to send me a quick email of who they have contacted and I will follow up.
Remember to mention this is a substitute bill that is an agreed to compromise that only allows the below mentioned activities.
FYI- link to bill (http://www.kslegislature.org/li/b2013_1 ... 1_0000.pdf ), the significant parts are below and attached is the actual substitute bill. Please note last year, Jason(Asst. Revisor) modified the language both in the definition of “guest” and in 41-104 from what he received from Walter(ABC).

This takes about 3 minutes and could make a lot of difference! Could actually make the things we already do legal!
JUST DO IT!!!
