In my previous post about AB 962, commenter “glen” pointed out:
There’s a very active grass-roots effort underway at Calguns.net to contact the Governor urging defeat of AB 962 (and SB 585, the Cow Palace gun show ban). Please write the Gov. Schwarzenegger and urge him to veto this bill — he’s our last chance to avoid another huge insult to our Second Amendment rights.
In one of the mailing lists I’m on, someone pointed out how easy it is to call the governator and voice your opinion. In fact, you don’t even actually have to utter a word, which is great (if you’re like me and am slightly apprehensive of talking to people over the phone).
Step 1: Call 916-445-2841 (Governor)
Step 2: Press 1 for English
Step 3: Press 2 to comment on a bill
Step 4: Listen for AB962 option
Step 5: Press 2 for Oppose (VETO)
When I tried, the line was busy the first time, but went through the second time. You might need to try a couple of times to get through, or call “off hours” when other people are asleep (it’s automated, so your call will still go through).
As I mentioned in my previous post, you can also write the Governator a letter online at this link too: http://www.gov.ca.gov/interact
Oh, and don’t forget to pass on the word.

Originally, NRA and Assemblyman Hagman planned to amend AB 373 as the vehicle for this legislation. However, due to details of the legislative process, the decision was made to introduce AB 1663, a new bill. Please continue to send in old petitions if you have them as all petitions submitted under the old bill number will still be valid after this technical change.
