Guns Save Life Event with Rep. Miller on Nov. 27th



Springfield, IL…Save the date to join State Representative Chris Miller (R-Hindsboro) as he and John Boch (Executive Director at Guns Save Life) host a special event focused on Second Amendment Rights. They will discuss the Illinois’ firearm ban and how Republican legislators are fighting to protect one of the most important laws in the Constitution.

“The purpose of this event is to offer the general public an opportunity to hear from myself and supporters of the Second Amendment, on ways we can stand up against a political power grab,” said Rep. Miller. “I think it’s important that constituents have transparency from legislators, and I want them to know they can share their voice at this event.”

Earlier this year, Pritzker signed a controversial gun ban into law, HB5471 which requires law abiding citizens to register specific fi****ms, magazines, and attachments to the Illinois State Police. Opponents of this new law feel their constitutional rights have been violated. Recently, Dan Caulkins (R-Decatur) has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to review the Illinois Supreme Court’s decision on Illinois’ weapons ban law on due process, equal protection, and Second Amendment grounds.

Guns Save Life is a gun rights advocacy group dedicated to defending people’s right to defend themselves. This group is also affiliated with the National Rifle Association and the Illinois State Rifle Association.

Rep. Miller continued, “John and I know the importance of fighting to protect the Second Amendment and we look forward to speaking with the public and taking their questions after the event.”



For more information, please contact Rep. Miller’s office at (217) 508-4108, or his website, repcmiller.com.



Representative Chris Miller serves the constituents of Illinois’ 101st House District that includes parts of Coles County, including portions of Champaign, Douglas, and Vermilion Counties along the I-57 corridor.

With apologies, there will be no newspaper this week due to power and internet outages. We hope to be back in schedule next week assuming repairs have progressed by that time.

Enjoy the holiday.
