Below is a list of things everyone can do to support good ethics and hopefully fend off Andrew Cuomo’s draconian “NY SAFE Act”. Please, don’t wait on this. The enemies of our rights certainly haven’t.

Join Key Organizations
Contact Your Representatives
  • The best way to contact your representatives is to call them or write them a letter yourself. The NRA-ILA offers a tool to look up their contact information. This is absolutely the best way to make your voice heard, and certainly the best way to reach your representatives in NY regarding Cuomo’s War.
  • (Federal Only) If you can’t justify the time to call or write your representatives yourself, these organizations offer forms that will send emails on your behalf. This takes only 1-3 minutes.
Sign Petitions
  • An up-to-date list of popular petitions is available here.
Protest
Polls

Vote in some polls. (These are not necessarily NY-specific.) Please take the above actions first; they are far more effective than some news organizations’ polls.

  • [Closed] Poll at the bottom of CNN.
  • Poll about 3/4 of the way down this page.
  • Poll near the bottom of this page.
  • Fox News has a poll that human rights supporters are dominating here.
