Write a letter...

Maybe get an answer. Rumor has it we're close in the Senate, and no one wants to be the most talked about person on the internets. I tried this approach:

Dear Sen _________

I sincerely hope that you will vote against all 4 of the Bloomberg bills, 1224, 6, 8, and 9, in hopes that better legislation can be crafted that actually addresses the problem of gun violence. I understand that Virginia has produced what might well be model legislation following the Virginia Tech shootings. I have not researched it, but reports I have read suggest that it is mostly (90+%) addressed to the mental health area.

We now have 3 legislators whose positions on the proposed gun laws have made the Colorado legislature the laughing stock of the nation, Salazar, Ulibarri, and Hudak.

I understand your frustration at getting e-mails and letters from all over the world on the topic of these bills. I suppose you are relieved that you're not getting Sen Hudak's mail. I sympathize with you on that. No one deserves to be getting Sen Hudak's mail. Except possibly Sen Hudak.

Regards
