This is a great way to get around all the states that do not issue Concealed Weapon Permits to their citizens. We need to support this bill.

Write your elected officials in the House of Representatives about H.R. 990

I can carry concealed in Vermont. Can I carry in all 50 states if this passes?

absolutely outstanding. A shot has just been fired over the bow, at Feinswine and Shumerscum.

If the bill passes as written yes.

[George from New England]

If this was introduced on Feb 27 this year, why is this the first we are hearing of it. Does it stand a chance?

Yes.

`Notwithstanding any provision of the law of any State or political subdivision thereof, a person who is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing, transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm, and is--

`(1) carrying a valid license or permit which is issued pursuant to the law of any State and which permits the person to carry a concealed firearm; or

`(2) otherwise entitled to carry a concealed firearm in and pursuant to the law of the State of the person's residence,

may carry in any State a concealed firearm in accordance with the terms of the license or with the laws of the State of the person's residence, subject to the laws of the State in which the firearm is carried concerning specific types of locations in which firearms may not be carried.'.

The way I read this, if police officers are automatically allowed to carry concealed in on state, they wouldn't need permits to carry in other states, either (if they are only allowed to carry openly, this law would not apply to them).

I have a question. Shouldn't CCWs fall under "Full faith and credit" in the Constitution?

Meaning: While I approve of this bill, if the government were following the rules, shouldn't this be redundant?

[xm177e2]

Does it stand a chance?

Of course not.

If we do not support this bill it probably will not have a chance. We need to support all good legislation.

Does it stand a chance?

I wish & dream of the day when this happens, but alas, it won't be in my lifetime.

[FreedomCalls]

I don't live in Vermont. My point is that in Vermont ANYONE can carry concealed. There is no license, no test, no form to fill out, no approval to get. Everyone there has that right automatically.

So would this law mean that anyone, anywhere could carry concealed by virtue of Vermont's laws (or lack of laws)?

Either you have advanced cancer! or you are way to much a realist!

[Clean_Sweep]

The GOP can't pass a fart in the Senate, what do you think will happen?

[TalBlack]

No matter WHAT law is passed NY STATE will not allow this period! They are RABIDLY against guns here. I mean, to the point of stupidity!

But, if you read their law, there is ONE requirement.....(and I'm not kidding here)

That you have no malice in your heart.

[2nd_Amendment_Defender]

Does it stand a chance? Of course not.

Right now, there are twenty-two cosponsers of H.R. 990

I'm happy to be in step with the latter. Thank you very much.
