CONCEALED CARRY RECIPROCITY PASSES: GUN LAWS MAY GET A LOT LOOSER BARELY TWO MONTHS AFTER LAS VEGAS SHOOTING
The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would lower the bar for carrying concealed guns in the U.S., in a 231-98 vote.
H.R. 38, known as the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, requires states to recognize the concealed gun carry permits of visitors from other states. A resident of Kansas, for example, which lets people carry concealed guns without any permits, could travel with a gun to New York City, where gun laws are much stricter, if this bill passes the Senate and is signed into law.
