Jeff Flake, planning to stick a knife in the back of gun owners here:

“Since its inception in January, Organizing for Action has already had over 1.5 million people take action through various grassroots avenues to make their voices heard on important issues like gun violence prevention, comprehensive immigration reform and climate change.

On May 9th, OFA volunteers delivered a petition with over 1.4 million signatures to leaders on Capitol Hill calling for commonsense action on background checks for gun sales. The volunteers met with Leader Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Mike Thompson, and Senator Dick Durbin to have their voices heard. While on Capitol Hill, Pam Simon, an OFA volunteer and former aide to Congresswoman Gabby Giffords who was wounded in the Tucson shooting, spoke with Senator Jeff Flake in the hall way. Simon told Flake that they were there to deliver the 1.4 million signatures to Congress and Flake made it clear that he knew OFA and other activists weren’t going away and that he was still hoping to come to a compromise and pass some form of gun violence prevention legislation.”

Very interesting find. Something odd I noticed about your post/reply -I was still left wondering if this “While on Capitol Hill, Pam Simon, an OFA volunteer and former aide to Congresswoman Gabby Giffords who was wounded in the Tucson shooting, spoke with Senator Jeff Flake in the hall way. Simon told Flake that they were there to deliver the 1.4 million signatures to Congress and Flake made it clear that he knew OFA and other activists weren’t going away and that he was still hoping to come to a compromise and pass some form of gun violence prevention legislation.” was actually in the documents.

So I googled this statement and a link to this thread pops up but it includes the statement this is the contents of one of the folders I got from there. (which was the clarification I was looking for-just odd, I noticed your post came over twice but didn’t say that the statement came from the hacked info.) Does that make sense?
