9 states with live Constitutional carry bills..

[Nobody]

You can carry in your vehicle in PA on any valid carry permit issued within the US, however. Open carry without a permit is ok in most of the state with some exceptions.

GA House passes the Senate bill with modified language. It will go back to the Senate, and upon concurrence goes to the Governor who stated in the past he supports constitutional carry.

I get that I can get some other states as a non-resident, but my question was posed because I work in Pennsylvania, not Maine or Texas, I want a Pennsylvania non-resident permit. PA is being very ‘Maryland’ like by not issuing to non-residents that will never be able to obtain the MD permit. All the training and successful background checks be damned, PA is rewarding MD and penalizing me for this state having un-just laws.

Like was said earlier, maybe the PA landscape will change after the November elections. I hope so, I can’t carry where I live, and I can’t carry where I spend most of the waking hours of my days. Just sucks.

Essentially, PA is granting (rather demanding) reciprocity with Maryland, since you cannot get one without the other.

And it was changed several years ago by an Attorney General who is now in prison. All that’s needed is a Republican AG willing to change it again.

Senate just passed SB319 with substitute it now heads to Gov Kemp for signature.

He has until April 10th to sign or it becomes effective on April 11th.

However it also becomes effective immediately upon his signature. Therefore anytime between NOW and April 11th.

He has been said he will sign.

It will become moot if a Republican a Gov is elected in Novemeber.

Pa would be COn Carry had the Gov not vetoed.

It will be reintroduced if Republican Gov is elected, and it will pass then..

At that point it will become moot.

However, what few people realized in the Pa Con Carry bill was a clause that would recognize all permits from all states, even if issued as a non-resident.

Let's hope so. But that Supreme Court in PA is a real piece of work. I wouldn't be surprised if they overturn clear ConCarry language "for the kids".

on what grounds?

We have standing the 2nd and 14th amendments gets unjust laws overturned sometimes.

What would be the legal justification to overturn it? Thats why no one has yet tried to file suit to overturn any con carry law.

Several groups are trying to sue based on ghost guns, 80% and 3d guns. But nothing for them to stand on to overturn con carry

 

[Texasgrillchef]

FYI…

More states have become constitutional carry states while Biden has been president, then under any other President.

As of this writing 9 states have become Con Carry states, and I’m not even counting Georgia yet. (2 of the 9 had partial limited Con Carry and expanded those rights)

It will be 10 when the Georgia gov Kemp signs their Con carry Bill.

The 9:

Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Iowa, Texas, Tennessee, Indiana, Ohio, Alabama.

#10 Georgia when Gov Kemp signs their bill

Right to feel safe or some other nonsense. Don't put it past activists on the court to try to find something, no matter how preposterous, to stop something they don't like.

Failed in Nebraska!

That will be hard since the 2A is enshrined in the PA State constitution:

"Defense of self shall not be questioned."

 

[Texasgrillchef]

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp signed SB319 today which took effect immediately. Ga becomes the 22nd state for Con Carry.

So what is the analysis of Nebraska?

 

[Texasgrillchef]

So what is the analysis of Nebraska?

it’s Dead in the water this year. They adjourn Sine Die on April 20th.

Sen Brewer vowed to bring it back next year. Half the legislature, which are the majority of the democrats are up for re-election in November so we will have to see what happens then.

Louisiana has reintroduced a bill, that they will hold over till after the elections.

South Carolina’s bill is still alive. We should see some action on it in September.

 

[camo556]

The law enforcement groups that keep opposing this are showing their true colors.

Texas has been constitutional carry since Sept and nothing has happened.

Posted in the other thread, but a link here too

I'm still calling this "not gonna' happen".

Would love to be proven wrong, but don't think I will.

I like to think positive. If it had not allready assed the house, I would be less hopeful. Right now it sits in Senate Judciary. If we can get it out of committee. I think it will pass. The Gov said he would sign.
