In case we all thought we had stopped this, The Democrats are trying to keep this alive and sneak it through. Guess we need to remind them we are still watching them.
They remind me of little kids you said no to. Do it anyway, hope you won't catch them again.
Last time I commented on H.R. 1022, the bill had 49 cosponsors. I had not been keeping much of an eye on it as the general consensus amongst those who have more experience in these issues than I consider it a non issue.
A quick check today (prompted by 45superman's report "More about Biden's "Crime Control and Prevention Act of 2007" ) found that there are now 59 cosponsors to H.R. 1022. 59 is a good percentage of the 435 members of our House of Representatives, and 4 of the cosponsors are on the sub committee where the bill currently resides.
H.R. 1022 has 59 cosponsors, two of which signed on just this past week. Representative Hastings signed on the 22nd, and Kucinich on the 25th.
So here we have Biden introducing a bill in the Senate that would "simply" renew the '94 AWB on one hand, and H.R. 1022 in the House on the other.
Gun control is still a very high priority for the Democrat Party.

I started to get angry and have feelings of violence, but then I remembered that we have a new law from our Congress and it is against the law for me to have those thoughts.......
H.R.1022 nowhas 60 co-sponsor's, people! Go to that link above, check to see if YOUR Representatives' name is on it, and if so - FAX or PHONE their office to demand that they QUIT co-sponsoring it and DEMAND that they vote against it!
If you don't, we're going to wind up with this thing shoved down our throats! DO IT!
