EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE <br />
Once again I would like to thank all those who have joined or renewed their ISRA membership because this morning we are slightly more than 29,000 members. Thank you all. <br />
<br />
Also this morning we will see a viable concealed carry bill being passed out of committee. This bill contains preemption which means local gun laws will be null and void. The problem will be all antigun efforts will be focused in Springfield. So the Illinois State Rifle Association will be in the anti-gun crosshairs from here on out. We will need you to recruit as many new members as possible. Please work on that. Stay tuned for bulletins as the happen at any minute. <br />
<br />
I would like to remind everyone to call their State Legislator and remain strong, and to vote against any bill that restricts firearms, magazines or any type of sight. <br />
<br />
Thanks for being a member.<br />
<br />
Richard Pearson<br />
ISRA Executive Director <br />

I sure hope Mayor Emanuel or Governor Quinn gets those shooters FOID Cards revoked. If you read the story, they don't sound like good "Hope and Change" citizens.<br />
