Democrat Tom Wolf Vetoes Constitutional Carry for Pennsylvania
Breitbart ^ | 12/03/2021 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 12/03/2021 9:56:39 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Gov. Tom Wolf (D) vetoed legislation Thursday that would have removed the state’s requirement that law-abiding Pennsylvanians get a permit before carrying a gun for self-defense.

On November 17, 2021, Breitbart News reported that legislation to make Pennsylvania the 22nd constitutional carry state was headed to Wolf’s desk.

Wolf’s opposition to the legislation was well known, and NBC Philadelphia noted that he vetoed constitutional carry on Thursday.

He called the bill “dangerous,” adding, “This legislation, which eliminates the requirement for individuals to obtain a license before carrying a concealed firearm, will only exacerbate gun violence and jeopardize the safety of all Pennsylvanians.”

If he is replaced by a Republican, they won’t pass another Constitutional Carry bill for him to sign. They always pass these bills when they know they will be vetoed but never when they know they will be signed.

No, not a chance because this was all political theater knowing it would be vetoed. PA Republicans had no intention on passing constitutional carry. They would lose a lot of money regarding permits.

Meanwhile those that don’t care about that law will continue to do so.

Wolf: Pennsylvania law is very clear; you need a permit to carry. You can’t have a permit.

Expected. Hopefully this becomes a campaign issue next year, but Democrats eff’d up so much that it probably won’t be on the radar.
