However, I wonder, even if this gets out of committee, how likely is it to even come to the floor, let alone pass? Maybe we should forget about the committee members and start working on our local reps in advance.
Please, don't under-estimate the importance of making these calls to the committee - it's more likely than ever, and it will continue to be a fight that we'll be facing year after year. We cannot become complacent. We must remain vigilant!

BE POLITE, do NOT be rude to the staff (not directed at you cinderbird - this is a caution for everyone). State your opposition to the bill WITHOUT dramatic emotion, the only way we want to annoy them is with the sheer VOLUME of calls.
YES! yes yes yes yes yes yes.... take a deep breath before each call and make it as pleasant a conversation as possible. I know myself how hard it is when emotions get surging over all this, but they definitely need to be kept in check, so we don't come across as the angry, crazy, reptile people.

Id on't think as an individual what we have to say will mean Squat. I think the shear volume is what will cause them to think.
