From conversations I've had with members and others and things I've read I am posting points to remember for Monday. Please add anything you feel is important.

From CCDL,read the complete page here,

Lobby Day is not a rally like back in January. We will be inside the Legislative Office Building (LOB). This is your chance to meet one on one with your local legislators and tell them you oppose further restrictions on our rights. Even if your legislator is already on our side, come out and support us. There is strength in numbers!
Please, business attire or at least business casual, and leave your signs and camo home. Follow the same Dos and Don’ts you would if you were testifying. Also remember that under CT state law, weapons are not permitted inside the LOB.

The time you get there is not important.
If you show up in the building at 3:45 PM it's just as important as at 10:00 AM. They expect/hope a surge in the morning and then it fizzling out.

If you cannot come to Hartford,
From 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM contact your representative any way you can. Phone email, Facebook. If you don't get through leave a message and call back. If they are overwhelmed by phone calls tomorrow it would be great.
Find your Rep, http://www.cga.ct.gov/asp/menu/CGAFindLeg.asp

Please be polite and courteous when communicating with legislators. If everyone showed up, 1, was extremely patient, 2, with a big smile on their face. 3, Looked every person they meet at the Legislature in the eye (you'll get a good idea of who they are by their handshake and if they look you in the eye) And 4, gave everyone a firm handshake. If these 4 things were communicated by everyone the Reps would be unnerved. They are expecting scowling, growling and short tempers (this is the world they live in. Don't go down there) Remember you are there to protect everyone's "Rights" even theirs. Smile at them, your doing them a favor.

Remember the Public hearing Thursday the 14th
