Congress Goes On August Recess
Congress is scheduled to go on its August/Labor Day recess today,
and will remain on break until September 3 for the U.S. Senate,
and September 4 for the U.S. House. During this time, your
Senators and Representatives will be back home in their
respective states and districts.
Many lawmakers use this time to
hold town hall meetings, where they can report on what they've
been doing in Washington, and take questions from their
constituents. These meetings offer a tremendous opportunity for
you to personally voice your opposition to any additional
legislation that further erodes freedom, and to promote
legislation that bolsters our Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
Please contact your lawmakers' district offices and ask when they
plan to hold their town hall meetings during the August recess.
If you do not know the number for your lawmakers' district
offices, you can use the "Write Your Reps" tool at
www.NRAILA.org, or call the NRA-ILA Grassroots Division at (800)
392-8683. If you get a chance to meet with your lawmakers, be
sure to tell them to:
In addition to attending meetings and speaking out in support of
our Right to Keep and Bear Arms, please forward the dates, times,
and locations of any town hall meetings to your family members
and friends who support the Second Amendment, and to the NRA-ILA
Grassroots Division, so we may compile this information and share
it with the pro-gun community. Please forward this information
to the Grassroots Division by calling our toll-free number,
faxing to (703) 267-3918, or by sending an e-mail to
townhall@nrahq.org.
